Hi,

complete ready to go templates to have the mentioned apps available for an IBay are not (yet) available/integrated, but we can sure assist in setting you up with ready to scripts or simple how-to to get this achieved.

I'm sure I am not the only one (or the best one for that matter), who can assist you and have confidence that others will jumpt in.

Regarding donations, maybe you can set the 'standard' for what it would be worth to you, that would be helpful ;-)

- Basic Server setup (Default server functionality up and running, including some accounts, groups etc.)
- Basic Server Audit. You did the installation yoursefl, but you experience difficulties or just want to make sure
- Advanced configuration or adjustments to basic functionality (mail, DNS, DHCP, Samba etc etc)
- Installation of contribs
- Installation of specific (web)apps
- SME Server specific adjustments regarding db/templates etc
- Security audit

e.g. Tick one or more of the items above and tag a donation to it

Full remote access is required tho (root access) and this can be changed later. By means of screen it would be possible for the owner to watch the console 'live' to see what is being done. Also bash history will be a good source to learn what has been done.

I believe stefano has done one or more of the above many times (as a professional), and maybe he has some additional suggestions.

How do you want to proceed please?

Hi,

I'll pm you later today (CET+1) to discuss some details and get things going.

@All, please add to this thread with your thoughts on these kind of requests and 'services' so we can pave a way for future requests.

TIA

you can see my live server http://www.heidi-01.dyndns.org
ftp is setup, let me know what port to open in my router for the remote console and I'll let you in.
Port 22 need to be forwarded to you sme IP and you have to allow root connexion on all internet and root login with simple password in the server-manager.

Of course if you give the password, you give all access

no problem port 22 on router is done changed for sme ip (Ops... forgot i left it open for my ubuntu server, my bad)
not sure how to enable true root access though. remote for admin in the server-manager is a go.
I have no problems with giving the password for the server (not publicly) there is nothing on it yet anyway.

normally you can use another port in your router
example:
2222 external port to 22 internal port
or through the server-manager you can change the default port.

read the documentation please :-)

For Centos there are a lot of projects with centos as upstream....they do the job...why doing it again.

For WordPress
http://wiki.contribs.org/Wordpress_Multisite

I use it with multisite, and it works wonders. ( http://mtrosemedia.tk http://koreyeagleton.com http://hisproverbs1822.com )


I don't like Horde Either, I am currently using EGroupware 1.8, works excellent.
http://forums.contribs.org/index.php/topic,47181.msg232441.html#msg232441

I would also look into AjaXplorer. I ended up needing this for my business.
I also need Front Accounting, and FFMpeg (Subsonic).
But to be honest, WordPress handles mostly all of the webapps I needed for my businesses.
Be sure to install a security plugin as all, such as MVIS, BulletProof, etc. Works wonders!
SME 8.0
Quad 6600
8gb DDR2 800
8 TB RAID 5
Dual Gigabit NIC
I Still Don't KNOW WHAT I AM DOING. Please, don't assume I know anything about Linux or Centos, I just know hardware
