Oi! Stop mocking my grey hair. :'( You're only as old as you feel (90) .
-
@Falzo I know! I was being facetious, as I hate dark themes. Yo, @seriesn d'ya hear me. ;)
-
Centos(/Control)WebPanel on CentOS 7 might be an interesting challenge for you. That HestiaCP black theme takes me back to mid-1980s curses sysadmsh, nearly. Gimme light! :p
-
Works fine for demo/email/forum signups. ;)
-
.. which would circumvent any issue. ;) Assuming you haven't rebooted and tried to ssh in to the server i.e. used the GUI to reinstall.
-
With cPanel, CSF is normally installed afterwards, whereby it scans for current open ports and adds the appropriate ssh one to TCP_IN. That's the default action of CSF, during its' installation. Perhaps with panels that integrate CSF during installation, there are 'tweaks' done to sshd_config after the CSF install part…
-
To be on the safe side, I (almost) always change port AFTER installing a control panel. I think it was HestiaCP that reverted the port during install, the 1st time I installed it. :-o
-
/etc/csf/csf.conf - or use the GUI Correction: add your new FQDN to csf.ignore csf.dyndns
-
There is never any issue with CSF ssh custom port - just add the port to the list of other ports. Then csf -r. Change sshd_config and systemctl restart sshd As for dynamic IP: setup a free dyndns account (there are a few) and add your new FQDN to csf.ignore. Change the relevant dyndns entries in csf.conf -never get locked…

SSD/NVMe? Likely to stop folks thrashing them, when vm.swapinness is set at silly 60 default - set to 0 or 1. Anyway: Ubuntu for desktop; debian/CentOS for server. :p (I have seen other templates set with no swap but never use provider's templates when commissioning a server. Grab the network settings (where required) and…

Ubuntu & docker - arrgh! KISS. Just saying. ;)
-
The end is nigh (TM)
-
Bludit looks like a potential replacement for my basic Pixie site. Thanks @vyas ! Looks even simpler/easier than Pagekit. :)
-
Report the shady employee to your payment processor, if not already. Mention their misuse of chargeback; I'm sure that will go down well.
-
Cracking deal and a "well balanced" server. :) Was totally tempted, especially with the disc space & daily backup but will stay with my current great deal(s) with you. I had to login and double-check specs. etc. ;)
-
Yeah, I mis-read :'(
-
Please clarify; are you saying this is still valid? If so, I'll grab one at the start of next month, if still available.
-
So you should - you can afford it. :p
-
I think that I may have cracked it! =) Along with the DA article above, I found this, which helped me understand a little bit more: https://servermanager.guide/162/how-to-install-directadmin-control-panel-on-centos-7/#ses Hmm, all looks good, I thought. Time to debug the SMTP connection using telnet.. hang on looks as…
-
Giving it a rest for a wee bit, before I totally screw up email delivery. I only want to forward the server messages through MXRoute and my client emails are working fine. Gawd, never thought this would be so problematic! Maybe it's an age thing. :'(
-
Thanks for the pointers. Given that I'm using Centos 7 rather than debian on these servers, I've now found this: https://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=153 but seems to refer to some missing sections. :-/ To be continued../Watch next week's episode of Soap. ;)
-
Good to know but doesn't help me get it setup & working .
-
Thanks. Actually, at this stage I'm struggling to get anything to work. Have set an alias and running test now. I've tried to relay by just adding a forwarder in MXRoute. I'll try adding an email account and see if something has arrives.
-
These are precisely the ones that I was hoping to relay. On average, 20-30/day: notifications for root login (me), backup completions, create/delete accounts i.e. just typical key server notifications. I restrict CSF emails to just a few key ones, not even netblocks 'cos sod 'em. ;) Some of my other servers email via my…
-
I did warn ya! Horrendous charge. :(
-
I was willing to give it a try but without a NATed environment - the cost of additional IPs soon put paid to that idea. T'was a shame, really. As a Nextcloud box, the cheaper server ran well.
-
My opinion on virtualmin/webmin is the total opposite. :/
