Dear all, I have a dedicated server with 8 GB Ram, 6 IPS , 500GB HDD, KVM - HP ILO with pre - install Debian Squeeze 6 co-located in a Data-center & have set up successfully OpenVZ using following thread; http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-m...ns-servers-on-debian-squeeze-with-ispconfig-3 For some reasons, I had to re-install Debain OS & have had some issues on 'Configure Network Settings" which I have addressed to my data-center support but was not answered due to un-managed server agreement. Any ways, I would request the community as well as Experts to please spare some time for me to confirm the following steps which I have done are correct; First I installed the base install as per tutorial provided http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-debian-squeeze-with-bind-and-dovecot-ispconfig-3 When I got to Server Network settings, Name Servers : " I have chosen Google Public DNS 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4 Primary Network Interface Eth0 Eth1 " I have chosen etho" > Continue Configure Network Manually ( I selected this since this server is not on DHCP) > Continue > Then following IP in the field IP address : xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx Then given following in Netmask "as provided by data center 255.255.255.xxx" Gateway : "as provided by data center xxx.xxx.xxx.12" Name Server Addresses: > 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 Some of my configurations files are as under; vi /etc/network/interfaces # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them.

Question about OpenVZ Hi, I have installed Virtual multiserver environment from tutorial on http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-m...ns-servers-on-debian-squeeze-with-ispconfig-3 Having Type: Node Hardware: Dedicated Hostname: root.example.tld 192.168.1.1 Type: Container Hardware: Virtual Hostname: web.example.tld 192.168.1.2 Type: Container Hardware: Virtual Hostname: mail.example.tld 192.168.1.3 Type: Container Hardware: Virtual Hardware: Virtual Hostname: mail1.example.tld ( One extra Mail Server) 192.168.1.4 Type: Container Hardware: Virtual Hostname: ns1.example.tld 192.168.1.5 Type: Container Hardware: Virtual Hostname: ns2.example.tld 192.168.1.6 My question is Type: Node Hardware: Dedicated Hostname: root.example.tld 192.168.1.1 Does this IP used only for Managing OpenVZ or can I also install this as either Web or mail or Database Server? Thanks & regards, Abin
