But this is not much customizable. Rainloop mail has a good customization option but lacks password change plugin for hestia (This plugin available for cPanel, Direct admin these are costly, ISPconfig etc). Can it be installed along with password changing feature? I'm confused, which control panel do you want installed? 2 hours ago, msbsurfi said: Payment is done. Yep, looks good on our end. Quote
msbsurfi Posted February 14 Author Posted February 14 I want hestia with rainloopmail. But rainloop mail do not have password changing plugin for hestia ( Which creates a interface for mail users to change their own passwords ). It requires some manual workout. As I am not expert, I can't do it. I tried it in My Azure student subscription. If you can do this for me, please install Hestia with rainloop mail. Quote
Krydos Posted February 14 Posted February 14 Thanks for clarifying. I'll see what I can do. In the meantime change your A record to 65.19.154.78 Quote
Krydos Posted February 14 Posted February 14 I took a look at Rainloop, and it looks like their repo was archived 3 months ago and there will be no further development. People are recommending a fork of Rainloop called Snappymail instead that is still actively being maintained. I can always install Rainloop if you'd prefer though, but there may be unpatched vulnerabilities. Quote
msbsurfi Posted February 15 Author Posted February 15 Thanks a lot for your valuable time for configuring the VPS. As there is security issue with Rainloopmail so it must be excluded from our choice. We need to make the VM as secure as possible. I will let you know if I face any problem. I'd try to quickly go to production now. Quote
msbsurfi Posted February 15 Author Posted February 15 What is the super admin username and password for hestia? vs112.heliohost.us:8083 here? Should I need to reset it using SSH? And port 22 is always open? Can I turn it off when I am not managing the VM? I see this security measure in Azure. It will great if implemented here. Quote
Krydos Posted February 15 Posted February 15 Ok, your VPS has Hestia installed with Snappymail for webmail. I set Snappymail to use the domain webmail.dmcrac.org, but since you haven't created the A record yet we can't test it or see if the password reset works. Let us know once you create the webmail subdomain. 1 hour ago, msbsurfi said: What is the super admin username and password for hestia? To login to Hestia follow these instructions: Login to SSH: ssh dmcrac@65.19.154.78 Reset the admin password: sudo /usr/local/hestia/bin/v-change-user-password admin newpassword Go to https://vps112.heliohost.us:8083/ Type username admin Type the password from step 2 that hopefully is stronger than newpassword. 1 hour ago, msbsurfi said: And port 22 is always open? Can I turn it off when I am not managing the VM? I see this security measure in Azure. It will great if implemented here. Yes, you can change the SSH port to something else if you want. There is tons of bruteforce bots trying random usernames and password on port 22, so just moving it to a different port stops 99% of them. You can also disable password authentication entirely and use private keys if you want to increase the security even more. Quote
msbsurfi Posted February 15 Author Posted February 15 After I create A record for webmail I see a 503 error everytime when I try to access. So I tried to reinstall roundcube and snappymail. Eventually I notice mariadb is not running (which might have caused the 503 error) and it can not be started. Also I think I can not find the log files. So I tried to reinstall hestia, but everytime I try, mariadb do not work. But the same process I try in Azure it works. Now I think the server is broken and need a Ubuntu reinstall. Can you please reinstall ubuntu. Regards, MD Shifat Bin Siddique Quote
Krydos Posted February 15 Posted February 15 Your VPS is rebuilding, and you'll get an email in about 45 minutes when it is done. Your next free rebuild will be available on 2025-03-15. If you need additional rebuilds prior to that date they can be purchased for $1 each. We used to allow unlimited free rebuilds, but one jerk abused our generosity and requested about 50 rebuilds in a single month so he ruined it for everyone. Quote
msbsurfi Posted February 15 Author Posted February 15 Thanks. But rebuild usually won't be needed if I go to production as I needed to preserve huge user data. Another thing, my another hosting username: HHFN is suspended for storage overuse. Can I get a gb increase by donating $5 for steve? Quote
msbsurfi Posted February 15 Author Posted February 15 Hello, Can you please setup reverse DNS record for VPS112. This mail server will be used only as official mail service for our club. So there will certainly be no spammers. Regards. Quote

msbsurfi Posted February 15 Author Posted February 15 dmcrac.org info.dmcrac.org mail.dmcrac.org Quote
Krydos Posted February 15 Posted February 15 Each IP can only point to one domain for reverse DNS. Quote
