I followed the guide on your website to install ISPconfig 3 on my VPS server and everything went fine except im not able to access ISPconfig using my domain name or IP address. Please help me configure my Domain with my VPShosting. I have only the IP address of the VPShosting and nothing else like cname etc. The domain was bought from Yahoo.com My VPS is unmanaged and the company is not offering any kind of help. from here on "mydomain.com" == replaced with my original domain name I bought this domain from yahoo and used A-Record of the domain to point it to my VPS server's IP address When I was following your guide used "server1.mydomain.com" instead of server1.example.com and everything went fine. when i type Code: hostname -f I get sps-p11p.asbs.yahoodns.net can anyone help me redirect my domain and help me access my ISP install. The hosting company told me install bind (named) to get my domain pointing right.
Can you check if server1.mydomain.com points to the right IP address? You can do that by running Code: dig server1.mydomain.com Also, please run Code: echo server1.mydomain.com > /etc/hostname /etc/init.d/hostname.sh start hostname -f should then show server1.mydomain.com.
after this command it still shows sbs-p11p.asbs.yahoodns.net -- may be you can help with the correct steps if i have a VPS unmanaged with CentOS / Ubuntu 9.04 (whichever we need) and a domain name from yahoo. as for the VPS i have the main ip, ssh ip, the username and password and nothing else yahoo domain i have access to the control panel and i can change A-Record, Cname and stuff like this. Can you help from the start on what to do and how to connect the domain to the hosting and the rest. Thank you so much. This will be very helpful for me and many others.
