    hi
    where do i find the perl "imscp-autoinstall " and perl "imscp-setup" commands
    running either commands from prompt always results in error
    "Can't open perl script "imscp-autoinstall": No such file or directory" or
    Can't open perl script "imscp-setup": No such file or directory



    thanks

    hi
    im still in my baby stage learning period.
    i had everything working just fine until i read that dovecot is the king of hill.
    i did try the auto-installer d reconfigure (thanks for the help). it went through the process of reconfiguring but for some reason it not install dovecot.


    so, i installed dovecot myself and now i cannot delete users emails, create new ones or edit emails. (which is ok as the accounts are all test ones) however if i do, an error saying "unknown error" pops up under the "Status".


    so im now thinking that the imscp installation may have configured all the dovecot necessary conf files during its installation and because i installed dovecot myself the configurations would have been default by dovecot standards.


    so im kindly asking.
    can someone point me to the all the dovecot conf files that are reconfigured via imscp during its installation that i can see and make all the necessary changes in order for me to carry on please.


    my logs do look good


    sorry i know this was long winded i hope its understood


    thanks for your time :)
    TL

    i know im missing something.
    i "cd" to the unpack imscp directory ("/root/imscp/" folder)
    then issued "perl imscp-autoinstall -debug --reconfigure"
    after pressing enter i get the
    "Usage perl imscp-autoinstall [options]" with all the switches i can use then it falls back to a flashing prompt. instead of a dialog box


    thanks

    hi
    i have a situation. i can send and receive mails from google, yahoo and other giant cooperation’s like microsoft but it appears that other mail servers are some how in a graylist and in my logs i get


    postfix/smtpd[28123]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from mail5.mcsignup.com[205.201.128.91]: 450 4.2.0 <[email protected]>: Recipient address rejected: Greylisted


    this happened from wordpress plugin site, http://www.smashingmagazine.com and other sites that have trusted mail servers

    hi
    im putting this here for anyone in the future who needs a solution for
    using your own domain name as ns 1 and ns2.


    what worked for me
    during the installation of imscp i added the 2 ip addresses which came with the vps.


    after the installation i created the main domain then check both ip addresses to be used with it


    created and configured an email
    i needed a PTR record because without it i was able to send emails but not receive emails. for me i add to wait 3 days for it to fully propagate. the PTR record was set by my vps provider


    another issue is if other mail servers cannot obtain a reverse lookup on your domain name then your new server will not get emails, or possibly be listed in the spam register. (so be careful when sending test mails,,, especially to google.. they will send you warnings in you mail.log)


    on this installation i chose not to use policy-weight as i noticed that some times the service would die which caused problem.


    anyway i hope this will help some one who is not an expert on dns like myself.

    hi
    i did try that way and something broke and the all sites poof vanished.
    anyway after such time i did a full reinstall again. lol


    via install i chosed a master nameserver to be in the default macine thats running imscp and then i chose a slave nameserver ip to be on the same system so in my head im thinking
    198.0.0.100 - master ip
    198.0i.0.101 - slave ip


    i rebooted the vps and logged in the the control panrl but i cannot find where to setup the ns records please help


    thanks
