Hello!

I am very happy for the ispconfig3 release.
I would you ask if the future "final" version of ispconfig 3 can be update from ispconfig 2 server or if however it will not be never possible to update it from version two?!

and..
a new ispconfig 3 server, can manage and interact with an ispconfig 2?
i ask this because i have more ispconfig 2 servers, and want take advantage of central management.

Thanks,
Regards.

Thank you for ISPConfig !
Can't wait for the final release, as i'm planning to create a hosting server (10-15 domains for the beginning).
Is there any chance to have the final release until feb 2009? I have now 3 domains to host and i'm installing a virtual server with all services configured "by hand" and it's killing me .

In general everything looks nice! My compliments, however i have some comments:

Within Firefox 3, After selecting (click on it) a menu item, and then another one, multiple menu items stay highlighted.
After selecting the menu title itself and selecting a menuitem again, the menu title disappears.

Switching from one language to another seems not to work.
I selected another language, nothing happens, even after a logout and a new login.

I've added this to the bugtracker.

Where did you change the language? With the function in the tools module?

I changed it within the language editor by selecting a different language fileset. Probably i did that wrong, because i am not that familiar with ISPConfig 3.

The language editor is only for editing languages, not for changing the settings of the current user. If you want to switch the language of you user, you can do that under tools.

I'm translating the messages to the Portuguese of Brazil, as do I send these translations to the project?

How do I disable some modules, for instance DNS?

I am installing on SuSE in the future will have the option of installing E-mail server with Dovecot, because it is easier to install and configure, and faster than the courier.

Sorry I used to Google's Language Tools to write this post
