Default Total Frustration-HELP
okay so i will be hosting multiple virtual domains. Running on a SuSE9.3 with ISPconfig installed i got it all up and running (I thought)

The websites come up no problem (the actual page on the ISPconfig server) but here is what is not working:

A)
Email seems to not be recieving..and the webmail installed (UBI) wont log into any mailbox's. I send test messages from hotmail and never get a undeliverable message in hotmail..so where are they? I use multiple mail clients on other machines to check and they (like outlook) cannot login to the mail box(s) either.

B)
HTTPS instantly errors out

C)
FTP only works if i use the internal ip of the server 192.168.1.205 but if I try to ftp using a domain name on the server nothing happens.

D)
If it matters my domains are pointed to FREEDNS server (http://freedns.afraid.org) that in turns directs the request to my cable modem.

Frustration on this is that i know 1% about linux (so im new here). I currently have a windows system working with email and web through FREEDNS with 7 domains on it, but want to dump it for the linux (Tired of Microso...t). I want to move it all over to the SuSE/ISPConfig setup. Please any help/advice.

I#m not sure if this works or not but do you have wildcards set? are behind a router?

on my test system i use "dyns.cx" & it works, my router is a ipcop router .

hope this helps.

If you're anything new to Linux, do expect frustrations. I have installed using the How-To Falko created and ISPConfig till developed on my server (x4), and on remote servers (x3) without problems on Fedora 3. The only problem I got was due to my stupidiy and the person who install linux on the remote server.

You must know what logs to look at in order for the folks here to help you. Some of your question my have already been posted here. I know I have lost some hair by trying to solve my problems, but that's just part of using an unfamiliar OS.

I hope you get your problems sorted soon. Trust me, when you get all the problems ironed out, ISPC is a treat!. Best of luck!

Please check your mail log (in the directory /var/log) ans syslog for errors. A command to get the last part of a logfile on the commandline is:
Code:
tail NAMEOFTHELOGFILE

This looks like a DNS problem. Have you tried FTP from outside your network?

Here is a copy of the mail log (kinda long sorry):

Have you tried both Passive on/ Passive off on your ftp client?

This might not be the answer you are looking for, but I find that I less problems using F3 rather than F4. F4 did give me some FTP problems but F3 worked off the bat. Also I think falko is the person you are looking for as far as Linux operations is concerned. Unfortunately for us, he is on vacation.

I uninstalled and reinstalled ISPconfig and at least the SSL for the pannel works now!!!

Ftp still does not...If i ftp to the local internal IP on the network ftp works. If i try using the domain name i logs in and seems to just hang at the "list" below is a capture from my ftp log:

-------------
STATUS:> This site can resume broken downloads.
COMMAND:> REST 0
350 Restarting at 0. Send STORE or RETRIEVE to initiate transfer
COMMAND:> PASV
227 Entering Passive Mode (192,168,1,205,4,40).
COMMAND:> LIST
STATUS:> Connecting FTP data socket 192.168.1.205:1064...
-------------

Also email is still not working as mentioned originall in this thread. I have a feeling the email is something simple but i have no idea what.

Are you behind a router? What do you have in your HOSTS file on the machine you are accessing ftp from?
