== Purpose ==
In this assignment, you will use the '''335assign virtual network''' and the '''slyvanas''' cloning-source that you created in assignment 1 (part 1) to create two e-mail servers: a '''Mail Transfer Agent''' called '''illidan''' and a ''Message Store'' (IMAP) called '''kadgar'''. You will also use the '''slyvanas''' cloning source to create a Samba server called '''jaina'''. In addition to creating those Linux servers, you will also be required to create a virtual machine for an MS Windows operating system to test-out your Samba server. As you perform and submit this assignment, you '''MUST''' run at least the '''variandining''' Master Name server in order to resolve domain names to IP addresses.
== General Requirements ==
#Configure your Thunderbird application (installed in Lab 4b) to allow the user to send and receive email messages using the '''illidan''' and '''kadgar''' servers.
Add MX records to the forward lookup zone on your varian dining DNS server so that all incoming mail addressed to the domain is sent to your IMAP server ('''kadgar''') first, and the MTA ('''illidan''') as a fall-back.
=== Set-up a Samba Server ('''jaina''')===
