what would be the perfect my.cnf config for this kinda of a server? Im running litespeed.
I have tried to manually setup awstats on a website in Windows 2008 with IIS 7. The problem here is that I have to create two conf files for each website, one named awstats.sitename.conf and the other awstats.www.sitename.conf. If I don't do so, then awstats does not work on either www.sitename.com or sitename.com. I cannot update the stats or view it from the browser. I have a few Hosting controller servers in which awstats is used and I compared the conf file with them and there is no difference. I wonder what could be the issue.
i have a dedicated server without any daily, weekly, monthly backup. please help me (Step by Step)to setup configuration my server to take backup every day within (some account) at (3 AM).
i mean setting for every day about some account (A,B,C...Z) at the 3 AM
Switching from Windows DNS to bind DNS. Slightly different as I have to learn the commands instead of using the GUI. Can you tell me if the below config is correct to run mydomain.net so people can access it from the web? It will also be acting as its own name servers. This is purely for external DNS. The private IPs will be changed to routable ones once its in the DC.
Have I missed anything or is that good enough for deployment to the live environment?
I have this in /etc/bind/zones/mydomain.net.db
; mydomain.net $TTL 604800 @ IN SOA ns0.mydomain.net. admin.mydomain.net. ( 2008012001 ; Serial 604800 ; Refresh 86400 ; Retry 2419200 ; Expire 604800); Negative Cache TTL
; nameservers mydomain.net IN NS ns0.mydomain.net mydomain.net IN NS ns1.mydomain.net ns0 IN A 192.168.1.15 ns1 IN A 192.168.1.16
;mail mail IN MX 10 mail mail IN A 192.168.1.17
; web IN A 192.168.1.17 www IN A 192.168.1.17
And in /etc/bind I have this in my named.conf.local file
# This is the zone definition for // mydomain.net // zone "mydomain.net" { type master; file "/etc/bind/zones/mydomain.net.db"; };
I have had many dedicated servers in the past but other people managed to configure them up.
I basicly want to host somedomain.com and somedomain2.com on a windows server that is located on XX.XXX.XXX.XX
The server has apache and php installed, which is just what I need. I am having an hard time configuring the domains I want to use on the server in order to make em "work" on the server.
I've installed MRTG, but am having problems making the config file, all I want to do is monitor the in/out bandwidth (2 graphs) on my own server, has anyone got an example file they could paste here?
I've decided to move from managed hosting to colocated hosting and I'm in a bit over my head as far designing the server configuration goes. I'm looking for assistance with setting up a fully redundant configuration with no SPOF (single point of failure).
The colo provider ensures full redundancy to the cabinet, terminating with two network drops from diverse bandwidth providers and HSRP. I need to eliminate all SPOFs inside the cabinet.
Some questions...
1) I'm thinking of using the Cisco 2960 Series switch as the in-cabinet distribution switch. I believe it supports HSRP. From my understanding, the switch will automatically failover from one uplink to the other in case of a network problem on one of the uplinks, and this will all be transparent to any servers connected to the switch. Is this correct?
2) However, this introduces the switch as SPOF. So, I believe what I need to do is ask the colo for a second pair of network drops and deploy a pair of 2960's. Then I would connect each server to both switches via separate NICs. Is this correct?
3) Finally, assuming I am on the right track here, I would like this to all be transparent and automatic with no human intervention required to recover from a switch failure. The servers will be running RHEL 4. How would I configure the network interfaces on the servers so that they can transparently use either (or both) of the switches? Is there some way to assign the same IP address to more than one interface? How does the OS keep from getting confused about where to send the traffic?
Thanks in advance for any insight. I would also be happy to hear recommendations for excellent network consultants that I could hire to design and implement this configuration for me.
I have a problem when i config config.inc.php file in my WHM . I don't know why share accounts can access to phpMyAdmin or create your database from cpanel .
This is a part of config.inc.php file

Some questions -------------------------------------------------- $cfg['Servers'][$i]['controluser'] =?
I'm having some SMTP server security issues. I am running Postfix on my Debian VPS and I am trying to disable Postfix from being publically used by anybody except those with webmail.
I read Postfix's configuration at Postfix.org, but I couldn't find anything that I thought to be relevent to this situation. Do any of you have suggestions or ways to fix this? Besides disabling e-mail all together?
As another detail, I'm running Postfix on its original config, not through a MySQL database config.
Mostly it works fine but if there is a 404 then i get a 403 permission denied error instead of the error page. the folder that contains the error page does have a <directory> bit for it and i even tried adding it into the virtual host but i get the same result.
if the file does exist then it loads like normal
can anyone see any problems with my config or do i have to do something diff for 2.2.6?
I had to switch to Apache 2 from Lighttpd and I'm running into a little bit of trouble trying to make it handle all my traffic. I'm using the worker MPM module, which has the following default config:
I was wondering if anyone has a tried and tested suhosin config for an average webhosting box?
I tried the config on the webhostgear article and it caused a few problems with some sites. On my directadmin server I managed to do the patch and the extension. I was wanting to do the same on cpanel server. Has anyone done the patch as well with easyapache?
I figure you would have to go to where it saves the downloaded source and patch it then zip it back up.
I just went to a box for myself, and just realized that my ram is closing in on it's limit.
We have 1gb of ram, yet we have around 50MB left.
We run 2 forums, with around 200 concurrent to 2000 on peaks. ( Currently it's 200 concurrent. )
Just hoping somebody could take a look at my httpd.conf and my my.cnf to see if I should tweak anything.

I have kind of inherited this server from another person so I'm not totaly sure how it was set up. It is a:
red hat machine running 2.6.9-22.0.2.ELsmp kernel running apache 2.0.52(red hat)
at any rate this server mainly serves up images but also a few video encoded in flash(.swf files). Basically the issue at hand is there are a few domain names that all point to this server but only one domain name will let the .swf files stream correctly. All other domain names will wait for the whole thing to download before playing. I'm pretty new to apache 2, but I do know apache 1 pretty well. I'm not totally sure where to start with all this. The server is set up with no virtual hosting for each domain which I think could a problem.
config.php to not have write permissions for everyone? I am running cpanel 10x with whm/extras Here is full report when i try and load fantastico scripts. You must secure this program. Insecure permissions on config.php While installing CSLH you might of needed to change the permissions of config.php so that it is writable by the web server. config.php no longer needs to be written to so please chmod config.php to not have write permissions for everyone. you can do this by UNCHECKING the box that reads write permissions for the file:
i would like to use Litespeed webserver from my server.i installed and run Litespeed from my server. but i dont know how to config. when i start the Litespeed webserver i have an error to please install Zend. Please help me to install zend and if you know whats my need for install please help me to done.
I use cPanel - Dedicated Server i can control the Litespeed from the cPanel WHM.
I have instal image sharing web and run well. But when i install my drupal site, my DS give me some error with that CMS.
1. First time, when i'v tried to open it, but browser always ask me to download it.
2. And then i've tried to change .htaccess and remove about addhandler, i can load my web. But not well. The page displayed just cache page. if i tried other page, just blank displayed no html or php tag displayed at source.
config my server? I think there is something wrong with my apache and/or PHP configuration.
I used to have a dedicated server running Apache 1.x (1.3 I think) and in my httpd.conf there were entries about keepalives, maxservers, minservers etc.
I've now got a VPS from FutureHosting, which is brilliant. In my httpd.conf file though, there are none of the above entries. It is running the latest version of Apache (2.2.11).
Are all the keepalive / minservers settings handled automatically in 2.2 or do I just have a default setting and maybe need to add them manually?
I don't have any load issues so haven't touched the config so far.
We are upgrading to a managed server from a VPS. Our main concern is security as we process customers' confidential personal information but don't have large volumes of traffic. Our application developer is recommending the following config: Firewall --> Web/App Server --> Firewall --> DB Server
The logic being that if the first firewall is breached at least they don't have access to the DB.
Is this really critical or do you think we can start with: Firewall --> Web/App/DB server?
Obviously budget is a concern and since we will have low traffic for the next few months it seems silly to pay double if it isn't really needed?
