InternetNZ Integration of Open Source Services
InternetNZ established its Internet servers in 2000, contracting Serion Solutions to integrate Open Source Solutions into their systems. They started with a simple system using a Postfix SMTP server with IMAP email and an Apache webserver. However over the years their requirements evolved, going through a period where they used SUSE OpenExchange groupware server and then later migrated back to Open Source software. Today InternetNZ run a dozen servers running a mixture of several version of Linux (Debian and Ubuntu) which provide all there server needs for their office intranet and Internet content. In the office Windows and Mac clients are used by the staff.Integrating Suse OpenExchange Groupware Server

APTLD server migration and management
The InternetNZ took over the management of the Asia Pacific Top Level Domain Association (APTLD) in the early 2000s and contacted Serion Solutions to migrate the mail, mailing lists and webservers to its servers. We continued to maintain these services until they were transfer out of New Zealand in 2009. During this time the Webserver was completely revamped by InternetNZ and the APTLD commissioner. The mailing lists were transfered to Mailman, an Open Sources mail expander. The SMTP server was Postfix which was integrated with Spamassassin and Death2Spam to manage spam and ClamAV to manages SPAM.
