Hi team, great work with all the tutorials you have created so far, keep going. I have used the tutorial to install and configure a perfect web server running CentOS. All is just fine except the mail server, when I check in the ISPConfig 3.0.3.3 Monitor page I see: Web-Server: Online FTP-Server: Online SMTP-Server: Online POP3-Server: Offline IMAP-Server: Offline DNS-Server: Online mySQL-Server: Online 1 - As I am really new, please let me know what should I check, post in here so you could help me bring the services up and running. 2- I have to mention that I am behind a router and I would also have to open some ports, could you please give me a hint which should be forwarded to my LAN IP. 3- I am using freedns.afraid.org and I have : mydomain.com (G) A 89.xxx.xxx.xxx mydomain.com (G) MX 10:mail.mydomain.com ftp.mydomain.com (G) A 89.xxx.xxx.xxx mail.mydomain.com (G) A 89.xxx.xxx.xxx www.mydomain.com (G)A 89.xxx.xxx.xxx I have also bought the manual, checked the page (24/308) - 3.2.1.3 Installing The Mail Server does not help me too much. Huge thanks in advance for your help PS: As I see, my questions are also related to [ISPConfig 3], so please feel fre to move my post to the appropriate section.
What's the output of Code: netstat -tap ? 20,21 - FTP 22 - SSH 25 - SMTP 53 (TCP and UDP!) - DNS 80 - HTTP 110 - POP3 143 - IMAP 443 - HTTPS 993 - IMAPS 995 - POP3S

netstat output is ok. Are POP3 and IMAP still shown as offline? If so, what are the outputs of Code: ifconfig and Code: getenforce ?

APologies - ingore me instead of putting listen = * i uncommented the line above - I know im a muppet
Make sure you have the rpmforge repo enabled as shown in chapter 9 on http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-centos-5.7-x86_64-ispconfig-3-p3
I've tried that and every time I get 403 forbidden I even tried downloading it to pc and ftp it to temp dir No joy
Also tried installed phpmyadmin fro this http://kezhong.wordpress.com/2011/04/18/install-phpmyadmin-on-centos-5-6/ but updating it to the newest version but still no joy - everythings done httpd starts but show warnign about Alias, but when i browse to http://server/phpmyadmin i get nothing
