Ubuntu Servers :: Domains To Run - What's General Avg
Jan 11, 2010
To start off, I realize this type of question is very hard to answer and there is no general rule. My intention is to merely get an understanding of what others are doing. Models: 1) small piece of a big pie, but many small pieces 2) big piece of the pie, but few pieces. Which model do you guys do? If one can make $100 from a site which little or know effert, why not create 100 sites like it? Benits: diversified with multiple revenue streams, hard to manage so many etc etc. OR Work hard on 1 site, focus, narrow the niche and make loads of profits. drawbacks: all eggs in 1 basket Which model do you guys employ?

I've built a web hosting server with ubuntu 9.10 desktop edition at home and it's up and running.how to get and set subdomains. What I mean is that I have a purchased domain [URL] and I want to add as many sub domains as I want such as [URL] so on. And more importantly every single subdomain must belong to each account.
sub domain account name
-------------------------------------------
sub1.example.com john
sub2.example.com steave
sub3.example.com myname
In this case, there are three accounts for ubuntu and each account has a permission to the corresponding sub domain only. p.s My DNS is managed by my domain company and it provides a web page where I can forward(not sure, but there are fields that I can type my sub domains) subdomains and my external IP addresss up to 20(just in case this info matters).

I've tried to set up an old laptop with Ubuntu server - need to use it as a web server for a group of students on a local network only. I managed to get it working fine for just one user publishing webpages etc to a folder called VAR/WWW I could FTP files into the folder and access them again via FTP or a browser. I then decided to create some subaccounts (one for each student) I did this by typnig the following commands:
Sudo usermod -g www-data student1
Sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/student1
Sudo chmod -R 775 /var/www/student1
(In this example student1 is intended to be a subfolder of www and act like a sub-domain with write authority- at least that was my intention) Problem I then get is that if I use Filezilla to access each account I cannot see where to publish the files - wherevever I place them they are not accessible from the browser. Do any of you experts out there know the answer to my problems please.

I would like to set up an ubuntu server to forward outside requests directed to different domains to different computers on my local network. The bind is I only have ONE public IP.
Here's an example of what I want to do.
- if a request is sent to www.first-domain.com, I want to forward it to a local server (say 192.168.0.10)
- if a request is sent to www.second-domain.com, I want to forward it to a local server (say 192.168.0.20)
and so on...
I will need to forward these requests not only for web sites but for other services such as SSH, mail, RDP, VNC, etc etc PS Once it hits those local servers, I know how to use iptables to forward them as desired.

I've set up a mail server using Postfix + dovecot. It works just fine sending email to users in my domain. However, I can't send email to external domains (like gmail, yahoo, etc) different than mine. I've tried sending from a remote connection using Evolution and I get the following message on mail.log
Jan 8 10:45:20 mail postfix/smtpd[14911]: connect from unknown[]
Jan 8 10:45:21 mail postfix/smtpd[14911]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from unknown[]: 550 5.1.1 <lobomacz@gmail.com>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table; from=<user@mydomain.com> to=<lobomacz@gmail.com> proto=ESMTP helo=<[10.24.4.230]>

Code:
alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases

I have a domain.com site up and running on my server. I just bought domain.net, domain.org and I would like it to point to the same site on domain.com. I am not sure how to go about doing this.I used zoneedit for my dns. So far I have pointed my 2 new domains to the same dns as my .com on zoneedit and I have created (A) ip address for them. If I did this correctly, the new domains are pointing to my server and all is left is to edit the virtualhost?

My email server (Postfix + Courier + virtual dropboxes) can receive internal emails, but if the email is sent from the exterior (like Gmail or Hotmail) this email is returned to the 3?rovider (like Gmail):Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently:xxxx@xxxxxxx.xxxTechnical details of permanent failure:Google tried to deliver your message, but it was rejected by the recipient domain. We recommend contacting the other email provider for further information about the cause of this error. The error that the other server returned was: 550 550 sorry, no mailbox here by that name (#5.1.1) (state 14).
----- Original message -----MIME-Version: 1.0I've tried a lot of things, I've used this guide:http://flurdy.com/docs/postfix/My Ubuntu Server is 10.4 (Lucid), I had the same configuration with a previous Ubuntu version and everything was right.

When I use sendmail (or, most commonly, a PHP or Perl script uses it) to send to any other domain except my own, it works great. When I use it to send to my own domain, however, it's trying to deliver it to localhost. Problem is, all our mail is handled by an Exchange server on a different machine, so I really don't want If I run sendmail manually for a test message to myself, here's how it comes up after the message is closed out:
Code:
echo "Subject: test" | /usr/sbin/sendmail -v me@domain.com
354 Enter mail, end with "." on a line by itself
>>> .
050 <me@domain.com>... Connecting to local...
[code]...
The message then gets dropped into my box at /var/mail/xxxx, but that's really not helpful to me -- I need to to connect to that other machine to deliver the mail there. This machine isn't used as a mail server at all. Also, if it's trying to send to a username that doesn't have an account on this server (we have many), it just fails entirely with "user unknown" (that makes sense, as there are only a couple of user accounts on the web server). how to get sendmail to connect to our mail server instead of "local"?

I am going to try and replace our crappy Windows/imail server with a new ubuntu 10.04 LTS based machine. It will end up with about 400 domains on it with around 3000 users total. 96% of the domains have very light use. 4% of the domains have heavy use but do not send any bulk mail.
Can someone here recommend a mail server software package that would be easy to administrate and easy to backup/replicate? All we need is POP with webmail. We do not need IMAP or want any group/collaborative functions.
What do you usually use for anti-spam on a linux mail server? We want to keep it all open source if possible.
For hardware we are looking at an HP DL360 G5 with dual Xeons, 4G of ram, and the P400 controller with 6 SAS 15k drives. Do you think a server like this will be able to handle the mail on linux? Volume is around 400k messages a day inbound with about 10% being legit/90% being spam. The server will be dedicated to mail hosting and will not host websites.

I recently purchased a GoDaddy domain with the intent of hosting a website myself at home on a box First of all, I don't have a static IP, so I set up dyndns with my router. Do I want to just have GoDaddy forward traffic to my dyndns account? Or do I manually change the nameservers? To what? Also, this seems to work for http(s) traffic only. What happens if I want to use ssh/ftp/smtp? And do I need to configure anything on my end aside from installing/configuring the appropriate server binaries? Is there a way to update GoDaddy when my ip changes?

Let me start off by saying I am experienced with computers, though my knowledge of Linux and networking is limited. I've just recently started setting up a Ubuntu 10.04 server to be a SMTP server. I've followed this guide by the letter: [URL] What I've attempted, to test the server, is the following:
telnet localhost 25
ehlo localhost
(this returns all the desired information) I then do a MAIL FROM my domain which is accepted, and try to do a RCPT TO an external mail server (gmail) to test sending an email. I am then told 'Relay Access Denied'. I'm sure that there's something fundamental that I'm either not understanding or not doing correctly. I simply want an SMTP server that can send to other domains. What do I need to do?

I have Postfix + Unix Accounts + Virtual Domains. I have a bunch of domains hosted on my machine, let's call them [URL] [URL] and [URL]... etc Until know, domain2.com, domain3.com were mapped in virtual domains to [URL] So this is how /etc/postfix/virtual looks like:
[URL]
Like I said, all mail accounts are unix accounts, so, if for example I have the user "paul" this user will receive e-mail for ALL DOMAINS. [URL]But as it turns out, I now need a COMPLETELY ISOLATED domain... let's call it [URL]. So If I create a new user, let's call it "steve" I want steve to receive e-mail ONLY on [URL] and not on all others.
I would have to redo the whole thing from the beginning. I'd have to comment out the $mydestination parameter in the main.cf file and start using only virtual domains. So if I have the following users: paul, steve, sally, megan, jenny and I want paul and steve to ONLY receive mail for domain1.com, sally and megan to receive mail for domain2.com and jenny to receive mail for domainX.com, my /etc/postfix/virtual file would have to look like this:
[URL]
I'd have to create the unix account and then start modifying the /etc/postfix/virtual file.

I have several web servers running apache on my LAN. Each internal server hosts a number of domains.I would like to make these available to the internet and make sure they all get to use port 80 and 443.My idea was to put Apache on the firewall and have all http(s) traffic from the Internet to my firewall be redirected by Apache to the different internal apache servers. This, in theory, would allow me to keep the standard http(s) port.
Can this be done? I was thinking of mod_rewrite and mod_redirect but in all honesty, I'm a little at a loss on where to start.Can someone point me to relevant documentation or give me the basic idea on how to start?

WTF am I doing wrong with sendmail? I am trying to reverse alias a user as follows:
USER1 USER@MYDOMAIN.COM
USER1@hshlnb.hsh.com USER@MYDOMAIN.COM
That is how I have the entry in the genericstableWhen he sends mail, it comes from USER1@MYDOMAIN.COM, so I have the domain rewrite correct. The forward mapping in virtusertable works fine as well - he gets all mail redirected to the user1 account as specified.My sendmail.mc file has this:
divert(-1)dnl
include(`/usr/share/sendmail-cf/m4/cf.m4')dnl
VERSIONID(`setup for linux')dnl

I want to configure a single mail server to send and receive mail from multiple sub domains of my domain. I've already installed Postfix/Dovecot and it is perfectly working for mydomain.com. And also installed roundcube for Web Mail. Can I further customize this setup to process mail to sub domains? ex- someone@subdomain1.mydomain.com, someone@subdomain2.mydomain.com, someone2@subdomain1.mydomain.com (someone@subdomain1.mydomain.com and someone@subdomain2.mydomain.com are 2 separate users. they should be able to log on to web interface separately)
Currently i use system account names as email user names. (ex - systemusername@mydomain.com). The only MX record in my domain DNS pointed to current server (mailhost.mydomain.com). I read about postfix virtual domains. but couldnt figure out how to use it to achive my target. I do not need configuration details. Just explain me the way to do it. I can do the rest my self.

Anyone can point me to a document, page, or something that will tell me exactly how to implement DNS step by step. I don't mean just the concept, i.e. you'll need two name servers, and to download BIND, etc. NO, I mean command line commands and all. Step 1, step 2, how to register the name servers, how to resolve different domains, etc.
I'd really appreciate it, as I need to implement internal DNS and external DNS for my company soon. Our set up is pretty standard: Firewall, DMZ, Solaris/Linux/Windows servers, and Windows clients, etc.

Two exchange servers internally. One is setup for example.com (192.168.1.10) and the other is setup for example2.com (192.168.1.20) Both are behind a single public IP.
I want to use postfix to sit in front of the two exchange servers. Postfix will accept mail for both domains and relay to the appropriate server. I have postfix installed with only defaults at this point.

Is it possible to add/join my Linux Suse 11.3 server with 2 domains ? I know I can do that with Windows PC, but I never try that with my Linux box. FYI, my Linux server is already joined with a domain, now I want to join my box with another domain and I don't want to take it off the current joined domain.
