Dns Settings
Jul 1, 2007
how to set up dns correctly as I have been trying for over a day now and not succeeded!
The situation is that I am using whm/cpanel. I have a domain hosted with godaddy that I want to point at my vps space. I have entered the nameservers into godaddy, and it now shows the placeholder page when I go to my domain.
I have set-up a user with ftp access to my main domain in whm, and uploaded an index page to test.
If I type in my domain name it goes to the godaddy placeholder page, if I type in the IP address it goes to an apache 'great success' page, and if I go to the same IP but with the users name added, it goes to the index file I uploaded.
I have played around with dns zones and A records but cannot get the index page to show when I enter my main domain name.

Our business is in the middle of changing to a Exchange based Email Platform which will be take effect in a few months, NOT NOW but planning ahead I'm trying to help with the DNS issues behind the scene. The current Host and Registerar is flarehosting. However I have just transferred the Domain Name to my NAMECHEAP account and need to take over the DNS Controls. I want to make SURE this is done without ANY downtime for the company (website, current email system). After contacting the current host for correct settings I have 3 things I need help with.
newerafinance.com 208.21.164.25 (Used for Domain)
mail.newerafinance.com 208.21.167.4 (Used for WebBased Email AND pop/smtp)
MX is mail2.uploadmysite.com
I was told with the above info I need to setup ARecords, CNAME, and URL Redirect and MX records. Before I try this myself I’d like some help with how this should be setup.
Exchange server will up at a future date so we need the current Email system to remain the same. Half of our users use pop/smtp and other half web based email.

I have IIS on my computer and I want to start using a php driven forum (SMF) on my web site. Before I upload the files I need to check the following settings are on:
the engine directive must be On.
the magic_quotes_sybase directive must be set to Off.
the session.save_path directive must be set to a valid directory, or empty.
the file_uploads directive must be On.
the upload_tmp_dir must be set to a valid directory, or empty.
I cant find anywhere within IIS where these directions maybe found. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I am being rejected by Hotmail when sending mail from my VPS. I want to send mails from punbb and OSCommerce, with various website hosted on one VPS/Cpanel/LAMP solution. And with sendmail or SMTP, it'a always the same : passing almost every ISP except Hotmail/Gmail. I also always get this part in my email header regardless of which website i'm sending email from :
Code:
Received: from host.locker4adream.com ([74.200.75.7])
by host.locker4adream.com with esmtpa (Exim 4.68)
So I think it's the host.locker4adream.com part that makes me rejected. Because it's almost the only line in the email header that is different when I am using Outlook/Thunderbird to send mail. This ip (74.200.75.7]) is mine and I never spammed or anything.
So i asked my host ro add rDNS. And I added this line to my DNS zone on my mail domain:
Code:
lockeradream TXT "v=spf1 mx a ptr ip4:74.200.75.7/32 ip4:74.200.81.156/32?all"
I am really out of solutions! Can anyone tell me if the SPF record stated above is ok?

I have bought a dedicated server with FDC servers and installed a script. Initially everything was working fine but now the site is not accessible. Everything is alright with the script installed but looks like there is some issue with the DNS settings. When I ping the IP address (it's dedicated ip address) it gives me an error. When I Ping the domain name, it just closes the window after few mins. Can someone experienced with WHM help me to fix the DNS settings? Of course, I am ready to pay for your help (though i might not have a very higher budget)

I'm having some issues with my vps hosting account. Awstats started showing ebay and yahoo as the most visited sites with that traffic originating from Hong Kong.
access_log has entries like this:
59.40.127.21 - - [07/Sep/2007:01:14:31 -0600] CONNECT 216.39.53.2:25 HTTP/1.1 200 13238
58.61.195.123 - - [17/Sep/2007:04:40:30 -0600] GET [url]HTTP/1.1 200 13216 Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.00; Windows 98)
I contacted support and their response included:
- Most likely what is happening is that someone has mis-configured their computer so that it thinks your site is ebay.
- not malicious, site hits would be in millions if malicious. We can setup filtering if it continues.
Well it continues... and after some testing I find that I can telnet to port 80 to my servers IP with apache stopped and issue a - GET [url] HTTP/1.0 - and get yahoo's site.
This action doesn't show up in my access_log obviously because apache is stopped. So I'm now at the WTF stage. When I try the same thing with apache started and using domain name I get my sites main page but according to the access_log this person in HK is getting something else (different size).
I disabled and updated everything I could through their control panel and nmap shows ports (21,22,25,80,110,143,442,873) open, no UDP. I tried filtering but the HK host is dynamic.
- phpMyAdmin 2.9.2
- MySQL 4.1.9
- perl 5.8.7
- php 5.2.1
- roundcube 0.1.2
Can anyone offer some info as to what might be going on? I'm waiting to hear back from my host but it took them a while last time.
I came to WHT to get some help about what I asked above but kinda got lost reading the endless info on this site. Almost have me convinced that I "need" a dedicated server and I could spin off some hosting biz on the side... :/

1. For a Virtuozzo based VPS of 256MB guaranteed RAM and 512MB burst RAM:
vmguarpages065,5362,147,483,647
= 256MB
privvmpages89,894117,964131,072
= 460MB / 512MB
oomguarpages46,34665,5362,147,483,647
= 256MB
Does the above indicate that the burst is actually up to 460MB or 512MB?
Does it also mean that 256MB is guaranteed even in out of memory situations?
2. For a Virtuozzo based VPS of 512MB guaranteed RAM and no burst RAM:
vmguarpages 0 67,584 2,147,483,647
= 264MB
privvmpages 82,870 131,072 139,264
= 512MB
oomguarpages 37,507 52,224 2,147,483,647
= 204MB
This seems to indicate there is 264MB guaranteed RAM and 512MB burst RAM. But the 204MB does not seem to tie in. Does this indicate that although 264MB is guaranteed, in an out of memory situation, only 204MB is guaranteed?
Does the second example seem right for a 512MB VPS? Or does it seem to be incorrectly setup?

For some reason some clients including my own test account have not been able to receive emails correctly. Basically if I send email to an external add such as Yahoo, Gmail, AOL etc, they receive them fine. However all incoming mail is blank for all clients? I mean blank as it there is no time or date stamp, no sender details unless you look in the header and the title just displays unknown?
Has anyone an idea why or how this could have happened?
I've even tried these with all spam filters off etc. I think the mail prog is qmail.

I want to shift my mail to Google Apps (standard version). Currently my DNS is pointed towards 1and1 dedicated servers (having problems with 1and1 mail services). Want to keep hosting with them but change the Email to Google apps.
The Registrar of the domain is Netfirms, Inc.
My current Settings for nameservers in Nefirms CP are:
ns29.1and1.com
ns30.1and1.com
Google Instructed me to verify first by creating a CNAME, which I did in Netfirms control panel.
'googlexxxxx.mydomain.com' Pointing to 'google.com'
DONE.
Google gave me the MX records to enter in the Netfirms panel.
ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
DONE.
It's been more than 24 hours, neither MX updated not that CNAME lookup 'googlexxxxx.mydomain.com is propogating.
What I am supposed to do here? I am waiting here for last 24 hours. I think that I have to set up these settings with my registrar (Netfirms) rather than it has to do something with 1and1?
Any suggestions?

I use a couple of different hosting companies.
Recently, I've begun setting up blogs.
I've been trying to set up blogs on Company "A" for the past month and have had nothing but problems.
While waiting to hear back - one more time - from tech support on Company "A"
I set up a blog on Company "B". Everything set up perfectly, smoothly and in about 1 hour I had the blog up and running.
I'm using 2.5.1 WPB and plugins that are NOT known to have "issues".
I've used the same themes and plugins on "A" and "B".
I changed permissions on a couple of the plugins (company A) and the plugins just disappeared.
I tried setting up widgets and none work.
if there are specific settings server side that make setting up blogs work/not work?

# everything is OK. Stopping csf will remove the line from /etc/crontab
TESTING = "0"
# The interval for the crontab in minutes. Since this uses the system clock the

I just installed a new version of CSF again on my server.
Based on the article and tutorial that I read, I do not have to change anything much on the csf.conf if I am installing it for WHM/Cpanel server.
I notice new version 3.33 has new function such as synflood and so on, can someone tell me if I need to change any settings inside my csf.conf other than disabling the testing = 0 on a fresh new cpanel server?

I can't find the language setting "lang" that should be in / etc / awstats / awstats.conf or in / etc / awstats / awstats.model.conf.
In addition, I can't show the drop-down to select the month, and only shows the current month.

I have purchased a proxy website using phproxy script hosted at dedicated server. Its now about 4 months and everything is fine but i want to move my site to another dedicated server provider because current one has some issues.
When i purchased that site seller told me that he has optimized server and installed some scripts {server scripts} to get best out of proxy website. Now seller is out of my contact.
I am very much pleased with current server settings but i need to move. So i want to make sure that i can optimize new server and install same scripts to keep going with current performance.
I only know about http.conf settings and i have noted it ... plz help me about copying every other settings which that guy had done to optimize the server and how can i know which and where those scripts are installed which has made server quite efficient?

On the server (linux, cpanel), we have global registers set to off. Some scripts require them on. What's the most secure way to allow customers to do their own settings for their own domains and bypass the main server php.ini settings?

I updated my account from shared to my first VPS account with GoDaddy and they assigned me a I.P.
Now,I choose the options to use GoDaddy NameServers,and i changed the entry there so that my domain name points to my I.P,like this:
Host: @
Point to: <I.P assigned to my domain>
Now,if i type my domain name in the browser,it shows my website but if i click on any link, my I.P address is being shown on the browser instead of my I.P.This is happening for all the links.
what nameservers settings i need to so that this does not happens.

I am running a web server (Apache 2.2) on a (production)windows 2008 server. I am encountering a little trouble. I have the domain wheatondev-uk.com pointing to this (production) server. This works fine. I have another domain hosted on another(developement) server. This is domain is wheaton-uk.com I want to have the domain wheaton-uk.com point to the production server. However when i change the DNS settings at network solutions by that I mean i change the settings of wheaton-uk.com to point to the IP of the production server...it times out when trying to go to wheaton-uk.com. If I switch them back to the original DNS settings, all the domains load up fine. I feel like this is an apache thing and I need to change something in the conf files.

My new server is set up and running fine but on the test account email I am getting a lot of spam again. I know spamassissin needs to "learn" but I don't want to go through that again.
Assuming I just need to copy my "experienced" spamassassin files over to the new server, what files need to be copied to give my new set up the same spam protection as the old?
Where does spamassassin store what its "learned"?
I am running CentOS and Cpanel
