I am trying to set up a webserver using Ubuntu server with the EHCP plugin. I have it working and can access the EHCP page by using the IP address on my local network (192.168.0.4) So far so good. I then set uo a domain using the Domain add new(custom)from the sidebar. I provided the following info:
domainname - learner
Panel - me
Panel password - me2
Ftp user - DACL
ftp password cullompton
Great I have now got a folder structure including httpdocs for that domain, I can also use filezilla to upload webpages etc to that folder, and have uploaded a page called index.htm One problem remains - what address do I type into the web browser to see the webpage. I've tried 192.168.0.4/learner which is what I expected to work.this will only ever be used as a web server on a local network, never on the WAN.

I've several webserver (ubuntu 10.10 x64) on which I would like to be able to send mail like newsletter.I don't need to recieve mail on these servers, I'm using google Apps for recieving mail for the hosted domains.There's sendmail installed by default on ubuntu server..Previoulsy I was using Exim4 configured to use gmail SMTP server to send technical mails (apticron, logwatch, cron mail), but it doesn't fit for newsletter type of mailing.On my tries, I've wanted to setup Exim4 (just for the sending part, no inbox, and not using gmail stmp) which result in:
sendmail marked a uninstalled but still there and working Exim4 complaining about not being able to bind the port 25.I've removed exim4 (/etc/init.d/exim4 were not deleted...)I've reinstalled sendmail.I got this warning on installof sendmail: /etc/mail/aliases: 5 aliases, longest 21 bytes, 91 bytes total
How do I restore a working sendmail? What do I need to do so that mail sent from these servers aren't marked as spam? (not considering the content of the mail, but the server that send the mail) I see that some company used some specialized company like "grosbill.emailingoptin.com for grosbill.com" Should I specialize one domain for all newsletter ?

I'm trying to set up and run Monit to monitor an Apache2 webserver, I want to be able to ensure Apache is running and if it's not have it restarted with an email alert sent out.
The monitrc (edited for relevance) looks like:
Code:
check system *server name*
if loadavg (1min) > 4 then alert
if loadavg (5min) > 2 then alert
[Code].....

I encountered a a dependency issue when trying to install Webmin on Ubuntu Server Edition 10.04 Beta1.
When you try to install webmin, libmd5-perl is not available in any of the lucid repositories:
I resolved the dependency prob by adding the following repository to my /etc/apt/sources.list: deb [url]
Then I did a sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get install and libmd5-perl installed fine along with webadmin. BTW. I got a GPG error when doing a apt=get update because I did not import the public key for the debian repos I used to get libdm5-perl, which doesn't matter to me as I commented out the repos once I got libmd5-perl installed.

I just want to be able to send emails through my webserver, setup. I couldn't find a dev forum - so thought i'd post here. I'd like to be able to send emails (form my localhost setup) to and from my global client, namely: ( ***@yahoo.com), using PHP and Apache. A snippet from my php.ini file looks like:
Code:
; For Unix only. You may supply arguments as well (default: "sendmail -t -i").
; http://php.net/sendmail-path
sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail -i -t
sendmail_from = example@yahoo.com
Now, I never could get this working in Windows, let alone Linux. I could do with it working though.

I got Shorewall firewall all Set-up perfect but I'm stuck at 1 last bit. The aim is to let on 2 clients max onto my server. I have the policy setup in webmin as.
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
More than 2 clients can get onto the server. The aim is to have it as a ddos protection allowing 100 clients on and a max burst of 10 clients at a time.

I have a dummy server set up in which I am trying to install webmin (which I have done several times in the past and remb it being straightforward and pretty simple!) however when trying to install I keep getting errors.
I install all the perl packages as required :-
sudo apt-get install perl libnet-ssleay-perl openssl libauthen-pam-perl libpam-runtime libio-pty-perl libmd5-perl
After downloading webmin I try and install it:-
sudo dpkg -i webmin_ 1.530 _all.deb
This is where I encounter errors regarding apt-show-versions saying that it is not installed.I try and install it but an error appears stating that apt-show-versions is not installed. So I try and install apt-show-versions and that fails as it states that there is libapt package missing too. When I try to force install both - unable to fetch some archives but maybe run apt-get update or fix missing....It just seems like I am going around in circles (as I have run apt-get update and have run the commands as root...)

while some linux distros come with samba pre-installed, webmin doesn't automatically set up itself to interact with it, plus i want to know how to get it working with other unix-like operating system other than gnu/linux (solaris, freeBSD, and mac os x)

I posted this question a while ago but haven't had any luck getting it answered so I reworded everything to make it more clear. I started an Ubuntu web server on an old work laptop. The purpose of this server is to host a small file-sharing site, a forum, and a wiki. I have no prior experience with command line Ubuntu but am trying to figure this all out.
So far Ive setup the LAMP server, so apache, mysql, and php are installed. Ive also installed phpBB3 and Mediawiki. Both phpBB3 and Mediawiki are able to open from inside my LAN. I also have SSH setup and am able to use putty to manage the server from inside my LAN. Mediawiki runs slow internally but this is a secondary concern.
Externally to the LAN I can access the webserver using SSH(but sometimes it is too slow for anything that opens up such as nano or the SQL password prompt to display and the connection drops). I can also browse to the site and see the default apache welcome message. But I cannot open the mediawiki or phpbb site. Both will sit indefinitely and not open. The access log on the server shows that the request is being passed through though.

how to create an entire server from scratch using a minimal install. I know Ubuntu Server 10.04.1 comes with packages that can be included during install but for the sake of learning I only installed SSH access.
I was able to get Apache2, MySQL, PHP5 installed and running fine. What I'm trying to do next is setup DNS so I can point fragdata.com to my Ubuntu server and have other people see my test site.
I have registered the nameserver ns1.fragdata.com with my IP and updated DNS in my registrar. I followed the tutorial but "dig fragdata.com" gives me the following:
Code:
root@linux-server:/home/syvil# dig fragdata.com
; <<>> DiG 9.7.0-P1 <<>> fragdata.com
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:

In order to pass PCI compliance I need to upgrade our webserver from php 5.3.5 to php 5.3.6. I found this: [URL] however it doesn't seem to work. My best guess is due to the fact I have 64bit server. Is there something else I can do without going through a compile?

I recently started with Amazon's EC2, and it's been smooth sailing up to this point. I installed the official EBS AMI ( ami-714ba518 ) for Ubuntu 10.04 and installed LAMP, etc. All this worked fine. However, Webmin is a bust. I cannot fathom why I can't get Webmin working after adding the webmin repo and installing via apt-get. This worked just fine on my physical server, but on Amazon it gives me "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at xxxxxxx:10000." I made sure my security group allowed port 10000 through to my IP, and MySQL client connections work fine, so that can't be the problem.

So in my first ever attempt at Linux (and servers) I was able to set up a working web server that is visible from outside my network and created a simple PHP page thanks to this tutorial. I installed MySQL and have some experience with MS SQL but have no clue how to get started setting up databases and writing procedures in MySQL. I know all the syntax about writing scripts for MySQL (assuming it's the same as SQL) but I don't know how to get started. Do I need to be on the web server or can I do it remotely? Is there a front end GUI that everyone uses?

I was wondering if I can use a different port for WebMin down below 1024 where I forward ports to my Linux box, rather than the current 10,000.
The reason is I forward higher ports to the Windows machine at present.
The goal is to keep Linux services down in the low port range. Suggestions?

I want to make a daily backup of my websites from ubuntu server over ftp to another server I own. Backup schedule and process works, the problem is backup restore. Winrar says: The file is corrupt, 7-zip crashes.
Backup archive looks ok (the same size as original folder) and you can also extract it ignoring the error by winrar. But the extracted folder only contains one or two subfolder and one file(usually image) and that's all.
If I try to restore from Webmin it doesn't report any error, and it looks like restore worked. But restored files are nowhere.

I've got an old computer around that I've put Ubuntu server 8.04 on.At the moment, this is only a little hobby of mine purely for educational purposes. (Great for learning Linux!) After using this tutorial:URL...for setting up a LAMP-server, I'm trying to figure out is whether or not setting up a root-password is necessary or not. I think the tutorial is really great for a newbie, but it consistently uses su instead of sudo.I'm aware of the fact that setting a root-password isn't recommended in the documentation, but don't you need a root-account to be able to run tools such as webmin?

I am using ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS and I have webmin 1.560 installed but when I look at Un-used Modules its showing system log is there and when I click on it I get this: The syslog configuration file /etc/syslog.conf was not found on your system. Maybe syslog is not installed, or a newer version like syslog-ng is in use, or the module configuration is incorrect.

Ok let's say I have Apache Webservers on 2 different machines within my network, I have http://outterABC.com setup at dyndns.org to point to my modem at home, and my router forwards Port 80 to the ServerA Machine (i.e. 192.168.0.3). I can access my webpage I setup for the Server A Machine.
But what I want to try and do is somehow access my ServerB machine's website that is on my same network. I tried something like this http://ServerB.outterABC.com and the apache page came up with something like the page wasn't available. I want to access the content of the ServerB website, but because I have only one router, i can only forward Port 80 site traffic to my ServerA machine's website. I'm sure it's a different syntax I should use but i'm just not sure what I should enter to bring up the apache root web page for the Server B website via http://outterABC.com
I tried setting up DNS A records on ServerA, but I don't think it will work with what i'm trying to do above.
