Hello,

I bought virtualmin pro and installed it without problems. Because my server was partioned with 4 GB on /home and 130 GB on /var (and virtualmin seems to prefer /home) i've done the following:

• re-mounted partition that was on /home to another mountpoint
• created a symlink from /home point to /var/home
• enabled quotas on /var

But now, when I create a new virtual host I get this error:

I have Virtualmin Virtual Servers Version 3.41.gpl

My problem is the mail server configuration (sendmail), the system send me the following messages:

I have Virtualmin Virtual Servers Version 3.41.gpl and I cannot backup my virtual server by FTP option.

FTP server : 192.168.0.41 File on server : Login as user : web with password : ******

Backup failed : Missing or invalid absolute path on FTP server

I need your help please.

Thanks.

Hi All, Just purchased Virtualmin and ran the installer on a clean CentOS build. Unfortunately the install has failed, yet the tail of the script showed no errors:

Hey,

Does anyone have tips on creating a server-wide alias "/webmail" that maps to say /usr/share/roundcubemail that uses the mod_fcgid wrapper and run as each domain users?

I'm getting suexec errors and am interested to hear if anyone has tried doing this.

Cheers, Ryan

I am running FC6 and Virtualmin Pro, and still have a few hackers daily trying to hit me, especially on 22 and 25. I am getting a lot of hijackers as well on 25, and had to turn that port off... but then realized that I could not receive mail!

Anyone have a good iptables script that will further lock down for the Virtualmin configuration?

I am curious which, if any, functions use the PostgreSQL server. I am getting a lot of attempted hacks on the postgres user; my websites all use MySQL. Is there some Virtualmin function that requires PostgreSQL?

hello everyone, I am running UBUNTU 6.06.1LTS server and i am wondering what would be the best partition scheme for my hardware configuration, currently i have an 8.5GB HDD (hd0 / hda) and an 80GB HDD (hd1 / hdb) i also have the availability of a 40GB HDD and i was thinking of reserving the 80GB HDD for all of the user accounts but because logs and databases would take up a large amount of space i am wondering what would be optimal.
