View 4 RepliesI'd like to backup a big folder on my hosted Linux server using SSH from my desktop at home.
Lets say the folder is: public_html/folder1/folderYX
I'd like to zip it and download it to my desktop hard drive.
What commands do I run from my SSH client after I have logged in to my server?
i have a fedora core 4 server.. and i want to install a good Qmail email server to host some emails of diferent domains..
On searching i found that Qmail should be install with those associated programs/system for a better server :
Qmail itself
EZmlm and EZmlm-idx
Autoresponder
Vpopmail
VQadmin
maildrop
QmailAdmin
Courier-imap/imaps with Courierpassd
Squirrelmail web mail program ......
I have all my computers hooked up to a server running Ubuntu Linux. I want to make it so that at say, 5 AM every morning, the computer checks for changes to a specific folder..and if there are, automatically transfer the files to the server.
This way, if anyone on my network needs something backed up they just put it in that folder and it will auto backup just in case.
Is there anyway to do this? Software?
My Plesk Panel 11.0.9 Update #26 is running on a dedicated Debian 6.0.6 server and works all fine, but I'm having some issues with the backups. I'm doing backups using the standard build in GUI backup manager. Everything works fine, even the cron job which copies the backup files every night to a second location. The problem I'm having is, that I can't specify folders to exclude from the backup. The reason why I need this is, that I have a 24TB RAID mounted in the /var/www/vhosts/mydomain.com folder and this will be a problem once the RAID is filling up.

There is a way to change where the backups are temporary until the hole backup is on the server? In case the only thing to do is to change where the tmp folder is mounted. This is a production server, I won't like to do it without knowing all the steps.
On my VPS I would like to set the /tmp folder to 777 and point to it with session.save_path.
The VPS will host a number of sites, but I will have sole control of them. ie. the account holders will not have access to cpanel.
If it makes any difference, the server is running phpSUexec.
What are the risks involved with this?
I have two servers.
One server has a folder named 'vidfiles' and I want to transfer this entire folder (all 70gigs) to another server I just got.
Both servers are linux and use CPanal/whm.
What would be the command to get the files to transfer direct from server to server?
I see many mails in the queue lists,and from the title I think is spam.
But how I can see from which customer is?
In process,it says as client the Root
What Can I Do?
The Sending mail domain,is not hosting in us - I check it.
Hi,
I can receive emails from qmail but couldn't send out any... I checked my mail logs and found:
Nov 14 17:53:20 server relaylock: /var/qmail/bin/relaylock: mail from 11.22.333.444:37277 (server.domain.com)
Nov 14 17:53:23 server qmail: 1163498003.114915 delivery 708: failure: 11.22.333.444_does_not_like_recipient./Remote_host_sai$
Nov 14 17:53:19 server qmail-queue[11421]: mail: all addreses are uncheckable - need to skip scanning (by deny mode)
11.22.333.444 is my server ip. Why Do I got this error and how to fix it??
Anyone help please greatly appreciate.
Thank you
I recently upgraded my Qmail systems. Since Inter7 was the one who did it for me previously, I contracted them to do it. Two years ago I was very impressed, my load was a high 20s, after they finished it was in its low 4-5 with 4 CPU processors.
This time I asked for an upgrade for the Qmail in general and also its spam filters as I am getting more and more spams and the load is increasing. They stabilise the server loads, add tons of fantastic new layers of spamming protection, helped monitored and customised their scripts to my systems.
Real professionals and real knowledgeable people when it comes to Qmail. I had nothing but praises two years ago. Two years now, I have still nothing but praises.
ive been asked to use exim coz its easier to use with spamassasin.
but is exim as safe as qmail?
ive heard qmail offers better safety.
I am trying to setup qmail to handle secondary mx for 1 domain name. Panel installed is LXADMIN.
I had modified the /var/qmail/control/smtproutes and /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts, also restarted qmail.
To test this secondary mx, I had modified the domain's dns to point the first mx to something invalid like "heheeeehead.com" so that I hope it will send to the second mx which is my secondary mx.
It did send to the secondary mx but with an error as follows:
<dan@domain.com>:
Sorry, I couldn't find any host named mail.domain.com. (#5.1.2)
Its true the host mail.domain.com is invalid as I had pointed to invalid domain like "heheeeehead.com". But why doesn't the qmail wait a while and retry? Because I got the bounced back error almost immediately after I sent.
The current default value for /var/qmail/control/queuelifetime is 604,800 seconds, or 7 days.
So I'm not sure why it bounced back immediately.
But I'm not sure if this is the correct way to test backup mx.

How do i set qmail to log to other directory other than /var/log/qmail/qmail-xxxx/current ?

My server is not sending mail for about a week, and i dont know what is the problem and how to fix this.

Could anybody point me the direction how to fix that?
i am having a server runnung RHEL 4
I'm a web programmer with little knowledge of server maintenace, tasks, configurations, etc.
I run a website hosted a dedicated box with godaddy. It appears my MAX SMTP limit (25,000) is reached at times. I know for a fact my subscribers are not generating this many emails.
1) Is there a way I can see a log file all of the email messages that were sent using my SMTP qmail account?
2) I've entertained the possibility that someone has "hijacked" my qmail account and is using it send out spam messages?
Any help in being able to get to a log for qmail or to run some other kind of diagnosis to figure out what's exactly going on with my server and why my max smtp limit is reached constantly.
Might be a weird question, but I have a test server setup with a single domain name and I am trying to figure out an easy way to get a bunch of emails to stay in the queue, anyone have an idea?

I wanted to try HyperVM/LxAdmin setup from sometime now. I finally have one but I am getting trouble with its Qmail MTA. I am posting here hoping to get some help.
Let me tell you the issue.
I have my main vps IP: 10.10.10.22 (I have 3 additional ips).
I have setup 2 domains on their dedicated IPs. (10.10.10.23 & 10.10.10.24). However, whenever I send an email, I get outgoing IP to be 10.10.10.22. I searched on Google and found out that I need to patch qmail with outgoingip.patch to change the outgoing IP.
But how to patch my already installed qmail??? I tried but failed.
I am running Centos 5.3 with HyperVM/Lxadmin
Also, even if I host a domain on main IP, my SPF record is always
Quote:
Received-SPF: neutral (google.com: 10.10.10.22 is neither permitted nor denied by domain domain.com) client-ip=10.10.10.22;
Are there any VPS providers with verifiable expertise in either qmail or sendmail?
Acceptable demonstration of expertise would include at least one long-term employee with one or more of: citation in respected MTA related reference book
useful tech posts to any related email list/forum/whatever
I am using Qmail for most of my email accounts which is taking up a lot of my Singapore bandwidth which is extremely expensive. Anyway to configure such that POP goes to my Singapore servers, while I setup a pair of servers in USA for my SMTP needs?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a vps with a site has phpbb2.
Before one month I migrated to another vps host.
In the old vps, the sending notfications such as reply new topic ( watch ), e-mail activations to new members notifications of the private messages were working very fine and each memeber which has valid e-mail will receiev these notifications from my forum.
The old vps using sendmail.
But the new one using qmail and it is will configured and the e-mail notifications are recieved which means that it is working except the ones who use hotmail accounts begin not recieve anything, the others e-mails are recieved well.
The files are the same, excpet the old uses sendmail, the new vps uses qmail.
After many days of searching how to solve this I decided to contact the support team.
They replied to me that they should do to overcome hotmail receive email problem, reverse PTR record needs to be added and to add SPF records under my domain's DNS zone.
They did and they told me to wait 24 hours, I waited for 4 days and it did not work.
I went back to them and again they look closely to my qmail configurations and it is fine and working and also they made an hotmail account to test and send e-mail form my mail server and it had been accepted which means that my domain and my new IP is not blocked by hotmail.
So their is nothing wrong excpet that email notifications from my phpbb it still won't go to members who have hotmail.
Very strange if the hotmail hates php mail scripts like phpbb why before in the old vps was like, and now suddenly hates.
How can i sort user who are using 100MB above space in qmail.
