Hi,

i am new to freebsd, i used fedora, suse, debian, ubuntu, etc in the past as a server system..

now ofcourse freebsd is totally different..
now what i'm trying to do is:
VHCS with:
postfix,
mysql server 4.x
courier,
proftpd,
apache 2
php4.x
php4-extensions

now, all are listed, but onmoste all services contain problems...

all services however are listed, except pop3 pop3s imap and secure imap..

so that is the first problem,

now mysql has 2 problems,
there does not exist my.cnf in /etc
and i can not login on a remote mashine

proftpd have no clue about that one, there is a ftp service listed, webmin does not pick it up.. it says it could not located the module,

smtp (postfix) works on the server, but not on any local mashine.

apache2, does work, atleast i think it does..

php looks like it works, atleast <?php phpinfo() ?> works correct..

VHCS gives me this error, which i do not understand:
Warning: Unknown(/usr/local/www/vhcs2/gui/index.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0

Warning: (null)() [function.include]: Failed opening '/usr/local/www/vhcs2/gui/index.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:') in Unknown on line 0



can anyone help me out? even if it's only with 1 program which you know..

thanks..
Marco

try here, /usr/local/share/mysql, you would need to copy it to /etc/my.cnf

what is this supposed to mean?

try this command
sockstat -4
see if you see the port 21, try ftp localhost and check.

you probably need to allow relay on the network or to specific machines. I am not good with postfix.

thanks for your reply,
mysql as you told is in place now..
the remote login on my sql, example: i got mysql administrator setup on a local windows pc, it's impossible to connect from that pc, while locally works fine..

proftpd is listed, i found out that i forgot to enable it at rc.d, now it is running, but i do not know how to create usernames for it.. i usually used webmin for it, however, webmin sees it as if it isn't installed (probably wrong paths.. )

do you know the console command for user names ?
or how to configure webmin for proftpd?

postfix, well i think i finally got that one running..

to create new ftp users. jus add new users using
useradd ftpuser1
passwd ftpuser1
chsh /sbin/nologin

ok it says command not found

for which command does it say that?

For MySQL remote connection:

You have to add remote user and machine as well before you connect from any workstation.

Something like this for root user.
# grant all on database.* to 'root'@'machine.ip' identified by 'password';

Didn't use MySQL for a long time. Here is grant command syntax.


GRANT priv_type [(column_list)] [, priv_type [(column_list)]] ...
ON {tbl_name | * | *.* | db_name.*}
TO user [IDENTIFIED BY [PASSWORD] 'password']
[, user [IDENTIFIED BY [PASSWORD] 'password']] ...
[REQUIRE
NONE |
[{SSL| X509}]
[CIPHER 'cipher' [AND]]
[ISSUER 'issuer' [AND]]
[SUBJECT 'subject']]
[WITH with_option [with_option] ...]

with_option =
GRANT OPTION
| MAX_QUERIES_PER_HOUR count
| MAX_UPDATES_PER_HOUR count
| MAX_CONNECTIONS_PER_HOUR count
