At the very end of the list after creating a domain, it said: Sending email notification to domain owner .. .. email sent to adamholt@www.thriftyserve.com

Shouldnt it send it to adamholt@mynewdomain.com?

Thanks,

I have a site that uses cgi files, where do they go, do I create a cgi-bin directory in public_html and put them in there, or do I put them in /home/cgi-bin/

What do I have to do to the site to turn on cgi?

Thank you for your time. Adam

Is my router (linksys) enough to keep intruders from hacking my linux box, or what do I choose in virtualmins listing for firewall. It tells me I dont have shorewall firewall installed, and in linux firewall in virtualmin it shows me

No IPtables firewall has been setup yet on your system. Webmin can set one up for you, to be stored in the save file /etc/webmin/firewall/iptables.save, with the initial settings based your selection of firewall type below..

Allow all traffic Do network address translation on external interface: eth0loOther..

I finally installed the RHEL 64 version of Virtualmin Professional, and although webmin and virtualmin installed fine, I still have one serious problem.

Against the recommendation of the installer, I upgraded a GPL virtualmin install that was working and running cyrus-imapd. After the install, imapd was still there and dovecot was not installed. I used yum to uninstall imapd, and when I try yum install dovecot, I get:

I have a router ( 10.1.1.1) to which is connected the Fedora box (10.1.1.6). Presently all zones files show addresses as 10.1.1.6. Router is set to 10.1.1.6 for its DNS with secondary to the ISP's DNS server.

I have installed the dynamic DNS option on both the router and the fedora box but am not seeing any changes in the zone files or anywhere else.

Hosting works within the LAN so virtual min is doing its job. Names resolve within the LAN.

Hello, I just bought your product and tried to install it with sh install.sh in the directory where I downloaded it, to, I answered y to the first question, then it stops me dead and says that www is not a fully qualified hostname.

What do I do?

I was going to release subdomains for people to use.

eg their_site.mydomain.com

Have added "their_site.mydomain.com" as a new virtual server

and added as a server within "mydomain.com"

Both options seem to work. However if they are a server within "mydomain.com" when they login they get access to "mydomain.com". Not what I was after.

But it is would be neater if the subdomains were nested.

What are experienced users doing? Which is the preferred path?

The postgres database support option is "unavailable". I am hoping this is not a difficult add and would be willing to help pgm / debug.

Having written a lot of software I would not expect to take too long to get up to speed.

That said there is not ambition to re-invent the wheel and if there is existing code to work with or people who have started a simular task can you let me know?

Sincerely

Richard

I want to run virtualmin, and need to recompile apache on a suse 9.3 pro server to make the doc root /home

Can someone tell me how to do this, or point me where it might be written down on the web in step by step instructions.

Thanks,

Alright, I did the .99 update, thinking this might address some issues I had with ftp, but at this point, I continue to effectively be unable to connect via ftp to servers I freshly created.

This is on a virgin CentOS 4.2 installation, with VirtualMin Pro recently updated to 2.99.

I deleted the test domain I previously strggled with, in order to create it anew, to even eliminate the issues of permissions, etc...
