Hi
what is the best way to get started ?
(Please be gentle as I'm a novice linux user)
Here is my goal:
Have a server where I can host 4-5 of my small websites and a few of my friends
So far I have done this:
I have bought a domain name at name.com xxxx.cloud
I have a VPS here, I renamed the hostname to web001.xxxx.cloud
on Name.com I made A record xxxx.cloud pointing to the IP at my VPS
on Name.com I made CNAME record web001.xxxx.cloud pointing to the IP at my VPS
on Name.com I made CNAME record ftp.xxxx.cloud pointing to the IP at my VPS
on Name.com I made CNAME record www.xxxx.cloud pointing to the IP at my VPS
on Name.com I made CNAME record mail.xxxx.cloud pointing to the IP at my VPS
on Name.com I made MX record mail.xxxx.cloud pointing to the IP at my VPS
I have installed ISPConfig using an automated installation script (Found it in the homepage of ISPConfig)
then as admin, i added my xxxx.cloud domain as site and mail, created a mailbox
but... I cannot send or receive any mails using the webmail (Roundcube), when I hit 'Send' I simply get the 'Sending mail....' flash messages in the lower right corner, and then after a while it disappears
What can I have missed?
Is there a better way to achieve my goal ?
Thanks in advance
Kind regrads
Steen
