    I am having problems accessing mailuser from outside my network. Everything works OK within my LAN. When I connect to www.myweb.com:81/mailuser I see a connection being made to my local (internal) address and then the connection times out. Where should I change the IP address in order to get rid of this problem. Help!

    Have you forwarded port 81 from your router to your server? is www.myweb.com an officially registered domain that points to your external IP adress?

    Thanks. I think I forwarded port 81. I will check when I get home.

    Port 81 is forwarded. Everything works including webmail. The only problem is access to the mailuser login page where users can change their passwords.

    My registered domain is igorg.hopto.org

    If the domain igorg.hopto.org points to your external IP of your router and you forwarded port 81 to your internal server IP, you should be able to login. If this does not work, ask your ISP if port 81 is blocked.

    When I try to access http://igorg.hopto.org:81/mailuser the browser tells me that it tries to load something from 192.168.2.114 which cannot work because this is a local IP address from your network.

    I guess you have 192.168.2.114 in /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/lib/config.inc.php. Try to replace it with igorg.hopto.org.

    Thanks for your replies. I don't have that local address (192.168.2.114) anywhere in the file config.inc.php. The only place that I know of where I do have that IP is in "Server settings" where I also have the domain "igorg.hopto.org".

    Port 81 is not blocked because I am able to log in to my email accounts and check mail. The only problem is logging in to mailuser to change user passwords. I would like my users to be able to change their passwords. Besides that I am really happy with the whole set up thanks to all those who helped prepare the "perfect setup - Debian Sarge 3.1.".

    I know that port 81 isn't blocked because I can access the ISPConfg login page.

    Can you post your /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/lib/config.inc.php here? Please make sure to remove your MySQL details when you post it here.

    Here is the file. I hope I did it the right way.

    Looks ok. Do you have 192.168.2.114 somewhere in /root/ispconfig/httpd/conf/httpd.conf? Because http://igorg.hopto.org:81/mailuser/ works, but http://igorg.hopto.org:81/mailuser doesn't.

    It works. :D Thanks a lot. The address was in that file. I changed it and everything is OK now.
