Ubuntu 18.04 is going EOL in April 2023. If you are like me and you are running your zimbra email server, it is time to upgrade your instance to Ubuntu 20.04.

The session ID is in white text on white background so selecting the text will allow you to see it. In your ssh session run fwconsole unlock fn7v38ue7gnrneqo2gu8aj0 Refresh your browser. Change […]
