After many many probelms with different flavours of linus and isp config 3. i have finaly manged to do have a semi decent setup. Im nearly there in having a working server, i have a few problems but i think its best to tackle one by one. I, trying to make the problem as clear as possible to hopefuly get a speedy fix. ipconfig used - - ISPConfig 3.0.2.2 operating sytem - Debian lenny 5 (64bit) Install used --- http://www.howtoforge.org/perfect-server-debian-lenny-ispconfig3 Problem : accsessing the controle panel from iether ip address or domain name. So i have installed isp config using the above method im pretty sure i followed it 100%, the install went smoothe no problmes or errors that i could see. the only way currently i can accses my controle panel is via my intermal ip ie 192.168.2.8:8080 i cannot use my external ip for example 143.33.55.7:8080 i cannot use any of my two domain names example coolsite.com:8080 coolsite2.net:8080 So in other words i can only accsess the panel via the lan. Has anyone got any ideas please. Thank you
First you need to portforward WAN ip to your local ip and open 8080 port in your router. Than you should be able to type in WAN ip followed by :8080. ISPC should show up now. If you want it to access by domain name dan you should set up A record that goes to your WAN ip: domain.com IN A ip.add.re.ss www IN A ip.add.re.ss These settings are done in your domain providers control panel.
OK thank you fo rhte post. The controle panel is working fine, bar the accses of the panel, as i siad above it works perfectly on internal ip of 192.168.2.8:8080/ if it was a port problem i would not be able to reach it there. Doamin name again is working, it has populated nps there.
As damir said, make sure that your router forwards port 8080 to your ISPConfig server. If it still doesn't work, please ask your provider if they block port 8080.
Thank you Falko. LEts get a few things straight My router all ports are forwarded Firewall is turned off atm Dmz created for 192.168.2.8(ddoesnt make a difference, firewall is off) My isp My isp is a pasive isp meanign they do nto blcok any ports results from http://www.whatsmyip.org/ports/ Port Number: Port 8080 is Open I also now have another problem wich is now getting anoying, ie my domain name is now not showing up, after i deleted all users all wedbsites all domain names and reocrds i readded them, now im getting nothing zada nowt. If you do a http://www.intodns.com/skull-and-bonez.com it shows up two errors at the bottom MX MX Records Oh well, I did not detect any MX records so you probably don't have any and if you know you should have then they may be missing at your nameservers! WWW WWW A Record ERROR: I could not get any A records for www.skull-and-bonez.com! (I only do a cache request, if you recently added a WWW A record, it might not show up here.) i have included screenshots of the ispconfig dns records ect,can you spot anything obvious? Thank you
Did you create glue records for skull-and-bonez.com (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_Name_System#Circular_dependencies_and_glue_records )? Did you tell your registrar that ns1.skull-and-bonez.com and ns2.skull-and-bonez.com are the nameservers for skull-and-bonez.com?
Hi falko here is some information deom :http://www.webdnstools.com/dnstools/chk-domain What are the errors i keep getting, i thought i had already created these records that are causing the isues ?
no need to, i have turned offf my routers firewall, and i have created a dmz zone for my server. aee atached screenie, im lost i dunno what else to try bar a new format
Your ns1 and ns2 answers correctly now so that is good. Although SKULL-AND-BONEZ.COM and WWW.SKULL-AND-BONEZ.COM have no records setup. No A record for SKULL-AND-BONEZ.COM. I can't get any answer with dig A SKULL-AND-BONEZ.COM or with dig @ns1.SKULL-AND-BONEZ.COM A SKULL-AND-BONEZ.CO
hmmmz i just did dig here it is below i think it is wrong should the server ip not be 192.168.2.8 and not my gateway ip ? the server ip is 192.168.2.8 my gateway ip is 192.168.2.1 im usre my name servers should not be these also
I guess you have your router IP in /etc/resolv.conf which is fine as routers act as DNS servers for computers in the local network.
Ok im lost i ahve tried everything i possibly can. It was working semi ok until i deleted clients/domains ect ect to start again a fresh, wich i had not of bothered now. i guess another formatts to see if that helps. Thanks for trying to help though guys
