The Perfect Server - Replacing server1.example.com

Hello,

I have done an install and even used a VM Image, and to play it safe I used the default "server1.example.com" as I learned along.

Now that I got a working box, how do I replace all instances of "server1.example.com" on my system? - clearly it can't be done only in ISPConfig.

I am using Centos 5.5 and ISPConfig 3.0.2.

 

I think you can run

Code:

system-config-network

and change your hostname there.

 

I have done that but still see server1.example.com in my maillog / postfix. I noticed in postfix main.cf there were two occurances of "server1.example.com"

Is there anywhere else this gets inserted or automatically updated when a service is restarted?

 

I think I have a similar issue. I deleted the server "server1.example.com" from ISP config 3 and there seems to be no way to add another server - effectively destroying the config. Unless I'm missing something.

This feature should be improved; at the very least, letting the end user know that removing the server is going to ruin his setup (because there is no way to add it back in the web interface).

 

Can you post your main.cf? What's in /etc/hosts, and what are the outputs of

Code:

hostname

and

Code:

hostname -f

?
