It took me a while, and I tried to resist asking questions here before I'd exhausted every possible configuration, and............ I got everything working! :D
I'm running a server from home and wanted to run the phpbb2 forum software. I also have a domian name with web hosting, but no email, so I was also looking for a way to run my own mail server.
Most of the XMail stuff, really had me scratching my head. First I got my email working for my domain name. It took a couple of days to figure that one out. But now I can send and receive mail, no problems.
Then to get the smtp function working within phpbb was an absolute nightmare. Not to be beaten I tried, and tried, and tried again.
Now it's working perfect.
So, from zero experience, regarding running any kind of server. I managed to get a web sever running, a phpbb forum, a database, an FTP server, and a mail server. Not bad in 3 days.
But the credit must go to Vlad Alexa Mancini. What a fantastic piece of engineering to put this package together. I will be making a donation in appriciation of his efforts.
Setting this software up was by no means "easy" for somebody like me (a reasonably competent PC user), making a First attempt at running my own server.
But imagine how much harder it would be without a package like Apache2Triad.
Outstanding.
Many, many, thanks.
Regards Terry. |
