ISPConfig Monitor App for Android Phones
========================================

With the ISPConfig Monitor App, you can check your server status and find out if all services are running as expected. You can check TCP and UDP ports and ping your servers. In addition to that you can use this app to request details from servers that have ISPConfig installed; these details include everything you know from the Monitor module in the ISPConfig Control Panel (e.g. services, mail and system logs, mail queue, CPU and memory info, disk usage, quota, OS details, RKHunter log, etc.).

How To Run Your Own DNS Servers (Primary And Secondary) With ISPConfig 3 (Debian Squeeze)
=========================================================================================

This tutorial shows how you can run your own DNS servers (primary and secondary) with ISPConfig 3. To do this, you need two servers with two different public IP addresses and with ISPConfig 3 installed. I will use Debian Squeeze for both DNS servers here to demonstrate the base system setup process and ISPConfig 3 installation, but once you have ISPConfig 3 installed on your servers, the configuration inside ISPConfig 3 is identical, no matter what distribution you use.

How To Install And Configure Mailman (With Postfix) On Debian Squeeze
=====================================================================

Mailman is an open-source mailing list manager, i.e., it can be used to manage email discussions and newsletter lists. It is probably the most popular and widely used mailing list manager on the Internet. This tutorial explains how to install and configure Mailman on a Debian Squeeze server with a Postfix mail server.

Installing Apache2 With PHP5 And MySQL Support On CentOS 6.0 (LAMP)
===================================================================

LAMP is short for Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP. This tutorial shows how you can install an Apache2 webserver on a CentOS 6.0 server with PHP5 support (mod_php) and MySQL support.

How To Do A CentOS 6.0 Network Installation (Over HTTP)
=======================================================

This tutorial shows the process of installing CentOS 6.0 using the HTTP NetInstall method. This method is much faster for basic systems since you don't have to download ISO files or one huge DVD based ISO just to get started. If you are installing many systems you may want to look into the stand-alone DVD as it will save time in the end.

How To Install OpenERP 6 On Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Server
===================================================

Recently at, we've been setting up several new instances of OpenERP for customers. Our server operating system of choice is Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. Installing OpenERP isn't really that hard, but having seen several other "How Tos" online describing various methods where none seemed to do the whole thing in what I consider to be "the right way", I thought I'd explain how we do it. There are a few forum posts that I've come across where the advice is just plain wrong too, so do be careful.

VBoxHeadless - Running Virtual Machines With VirtualBox 4.0 On A Headless CentOS 5.6 Server
===========================================================================================

This guide explains how you can run virtual machines with VirtualBox 4.0 on a headless CentOS 5.6 server. Normally you use the VirtualBox GUI to manage your virtual machines, but a server does not have a desktop environment. Fortunately, VirtualBox comes with a tool called VBoxHeadless that allows you to connect to the virtual machines over a remote desktop connection, so there's no need for the VirtualBox GUI.
