Great tutorial! All is working well so far. So I am now here in the tutorial http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-centos-5.4-x86_64-ispconfig-3-p6 I am at the point of installing the latest ispconfig3 via ... wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/ispconfig/ISPConfig-3.0.3.2.tar.gz?use_mirror= While reading through the config information I realize I need a few answers to complete this install. I have never done this before. I am not clear what I should enter for ... Full qualified hostname (FQDN) of the server, eg server1.domain.tld [server1.example.com]: <-- ENTER AND Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) []: <-- ENTER Common Name (eg, your name or your server's hostname) []: <-- ENTER Email Address []: <-- ENTER My /etc/hosts info is ... [root@centos1 tmp]# cat /etc/hosts # Do not remove the following line, or various programs # that require network functionality will fail. 127.0.0.1 centos1.shaley.travishaley.com centos1 localhost.localdomain localhost ::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6 Which allows me to browse using this address http://10.0.2.121/phpmyadmin/ http://10.0.2.121/webmail/ Thank You in advance.
Thanks Till That sounds easy enough. very great I can now access ISPConfig 3 with http://10.0.2.121:8080/ I can't access it with http://centos1.shaley.travishaley.com:8080/ I did change the following to my area on the install Country Name (2 letter code) [GB]: <-- ENTER State or Province Name (full name) [Berkshire]: <-- ENTER Locality Name (eg, city) [Newbury]: <-- ENTER Also I am not able to access http://10.0.2.121/webmail/src/login.php using Name: root Password: <password> Is there possibly another tutorial(s) available once I complete the ISPconfig 3 instructions? One that will assist me with accessing Squirrelmail and setting up an ISPconfig 3 control panel?
Does centos1.shaley.travishaley.com point to your router'S public IP address? Did you configure your router to forward port 8080 to your ISPConfig server? You must log in with an email address (that you set up through ISPConfig) and the appropriate password.
Thanks falko! Nope having router set up now THANK YOU! OK ISPconfig panel --> email --> Add New Domain ---> server = centos1.shaley.travishaley.com? AND domain = any domain on centos1.shaley.travishaley.com that needs email? eg: domain = nhrabook.com and/or www.nhrabook.com? ( is the www needed??) eg: domain alias = ads.nhrabook.com IS there a good tutorial regarding the setup of ISPconfig 3 email and/or ISPconfig 3 control panel?
Yes. Yes. The www is not needed (unless you want to receive emails in the form of user@[B]www[/B].yourdomain.com). Yes, there's the ISPConfig 3 Manual: http://www.ispconfig.org/ispconfig-3/ispconfig-3-manual/
Public IP Thanks again falko I'd love your assistance again regarding pointing my router to Public IP address and forwarding port 8080. I have only one public IP address available to me which my router is currently pointing to. Currently I am using it to host files on a Win 2008 server Xampp 10.0.2.220 Godaddy hosts account. I then created Centos5.4 Perfect Server through remote desktop via AnzioWin-10.0.2.121 Now I don't want to take 10.0.2.220 off line since it is hosting web sites. I believe that will occur IF point 10.0.2.121 - centos1.shaley.travishaley.com to my public IP address. Can this be resolved by using different ports possibly port 80 for 10.0.2.220 port 81 for 10.0.2.121 port 8080 for 10.0.2.220 port 8181 for 10.0.2.121 Or something else so I can use both Win 2008 and this new Centos5 server? [shaley@centos1 ssh]$ netstat -r Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface 10.0.2.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 169.254.0.0 * 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 default 10.0.2.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
10.0.2.220 is a private IP address (the router's internal one), not a public one. Go to your router's status page, and it should show you the public IP.
It is not my router yet thanks for your reply! I'll pass your message on. Thanks again for all your assistance
