Webmin/Virtualmin : IP address issue for virtual domains

Hi,

I have a little problem configuring network using webmin and its network module. Let's say my IP address is xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, and I have a second, virtual one, yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy.

My initial conf.d/net config is like this, without the virtual one.

config_eth0=( "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask 255.255.255.0" ) routes_eth0=( "default gw xxx.xxx.xxx.254" )

According to my ISP, OVH, to add in ssh a virtual IP, I should change my net file like this :

Impossible to login to my mail server : webmin/virtualmin/postfix/dovecot

Hi,

I have a little issue in Dovecot, I cannot access to my mail server. My configuration : latest gentoo release, with webmin/virtualmin/postfix/dovecot installed.

So let's call my domain : mydomain.com The email address I configured : myname@mydomain.com The user name is : myname.mydomain The password : 12345

let me show you what I have in a ssh session. What I type is in plain text, computer answer is in bold.

Setting up postfix to use with virtualmin

Hi,

I'm using webmin/virtualmin, but when I launch virtualmin, I have the following error:

"No virtual domains file was found in your Postfix configuration. Maybe no virtual domain map has been defined."

So, what exactly should I configure, and how? If someone can explain me how to configure it from inside webmin, that would be better. If not, I can still configure it via ssh, but I would prefer configuring it from inside webmin.

Thanks

And now it keeps returning a problem with mysql

even though I can log into mysql through ssh and it appears to be functioning.

When I check the configuration I get the following response:

Checking Configuration

<...snip...>

  MySQL does not appear to be installed and running on your system, or has not yet been set up properly in Webmin's MySQL Database module. If your system does not use MySQL, it should be disabled in Virtualmin's module configuration page.

.. your system is not ready for use by Virtualmin.

Won't let me log in even after I've edited miniserv.conf

It appeared to install correctly (after a bit of fiddling, anyway) but instead of being able to log in and get to work I get

Error - Access denied for #.#.#.#

(where #.#.#.# is my IP addy)

I took a look at miniserv.conf, naturally, and changed the line

allow=127.0.0.1

to every conceivable entry that might let me in (#.#.#.#, ..., *, combinations of the above, and blank) and tried restart, force-reload, and just plain stop/start.

I tried multiple browsers and multiple systems on my KVM.

And all I get is

Virtualmin restore error

Whenever I try to restore a website I get the following error: HTTP/1.0 500 Perl execution failed Server: MiniServ/0.01 Date: Thu, 7 Jun 2007 08:59:16 GMT Content-type: text/html Connection: close

Error - Perl execution failed Modification of non-creatable array value attempted, subscript -1 at /usr/libexec/webmin/postfix/postfix-lib.pl line 704.

and I have no idea what is causing it, Restore worked at one point but now it doesnt,

Mailman directives

Virtualmin adds these redirections to apache virtual server conf when mailman plugin is enabled. What is the purpose of these and how do I use them?

RedirectMatch /cgi-bin/mailman/([[^/]])(.) https://domain.com:10000/virtualmin-mailman/unauthenticated/$1.cgi$2 RedirectMatch /mailman/([[^/]])(.) https://domain.com:10000/virtualmin-mailman/unauthenticated/$1.cgi$2

Mail & pop problem

Hello

I just created a mydomain.net with virtualmin 3.41 gpl

I can connect with thunderbird on my new mailbox "nils" but replies to me: "no new messages on the server"

but when I check it with Putty mail -u nils all my mails are there...

In 'Edit mailbox' the 'Inbox mail file' is /var/www/domain/homes/user/Maildir/ but it's empty ?

All mails are in /var/mail/user

In wich directory is pop3 looking ? How and where can I change the path ?

thanks

Pre-Purchase License Question

Hi,

I currently use virtualmin gpl, but since I will be rebuilding my server soon, I am thinking of purchasing virtualmin pro. However, I think I need clarification with regards to the license.

When I purchase virtualmin pro, is the license a yearly license that must be renewed each year? Or is it more like Plesk, in that the license is good forever, just that free software upgrades stop after a year?
