    Hi,
    I have 2 servers in an ISPConfig Mirror, on the 2nd server the user isn't being created for the website (web35), although its being created on the primary server.

    Any ideas why?

    Web/FTP/Mail settings are transferring fine...


    Thanks,

    Marty

    If you setup the system as mirror, then the shall user should be created on boths servers automatically. If thats not the case on your system, enable debugging for the slave server in ispconfig, create a new website and check if the shell user gets created or if there are any errors in the debug output.

    I thought that is what should happen, how do you enabled debugging?

    Thanks

    Ok, Debug shows it has added a user:
    Code:
    2010-08-21 20:34  	MOSS  	Debug  	Adding the user: web36
    But these are the last lines in my /etc/shadow
    Code:
    web24:!:14819:0:99999:7:::
    web25:!:14819:0:99999:7:::
    web26:!:14819:0:99999:7:::
    web27:!:14819:0:99999:7:::
    web32:!:14821:0:99999:7:::

    And you are sure that you enabled debugging for the slave and not the master? Then check the group and password files on the slave with the commands:

    pwck

    and

    grpck

    to ensure that they are not corrupted.

    No, MOSS is the slave of ROY.

    Code:
    root@moss:~# pwck
    user 'lp': directory '/var/spool/lpd' does not exist
    user 'news': directory '/var/spool/news' does not exist
    user 'uucp': directory '/var/spool/uucp' does not exist
    user 'list': directory '/var/list' does not exist
    user 'irc': directory '/var/run/ircd' does not exist
    user 'gnats': directory '/var/lib/gnats' does not exist
    user 'nobody': directory '/nonexistent' does not exist
    user 'syslog': directory '/home/syslog' does not exist
    user 'ntp': directory '/home/ntp' does not exist
    user 'haproxy': directory '/home/haproxy' does not exist
    pwck: no changes
    root@moss:~# grpck
    duplicate group entry
    delete line 'sshusers:x:5002:'? y
    'web24' is a member of the 'sshusers' group in /etc/group but not in /etc/gshadow

    Ok,
    It seems like after those commands, it all started working again,
    Adding clients then websites work.
    Adding websites for old clients work. :)

    What do those commands do?

    Thanks for your help,

    Marty

    They do a consistency check of the passwd, shadow and group files.
