The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3]Version 1.0
Author: Falko Timme <ft [at] falkotimme [dot] com> Last edited 05/03/2009
This tutorial shows how to prepare an Ubuntu 9.04 server for the installation of ISPConfig 3, and how to install ISPConfig 3. ISPConfig 3 is a webhosting control panel that allows you to configure the following services through a web browser: Apache web server, Postfix mail server, MySQL, MyDNS nameserver, PureFTPd, SpamAssassin, ClamAV, and many more.
Please note that this setup does not work for ISPConfig 2! It is valid for ISPConfig 3 only!
I do not issue any guarantee that this will work for you!
1 RequirementsTo install such a system you will need the following:
• the Ubuntu 9.04 server CD, available here: ftp://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/9.04/ubuntu9.04serveri386.iso (i386) or ftp://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/9.04/ubuntu9.04serveramd64.iso (x86_64)
• a fast Internet connection.
2 Preliminary NoteIn this tutorial I use the hostname server1.example.com with the IP address 192.168.0.100 and the gateway 192.168.0.1. These settings might differ for you, so you have to replace them where appropriate.
3 The Base SystemInsert your Ubuntu install CD into your system and boot from it. Select your language:
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 1
Then select Install Ubuntu Server:
Choose your language again (?):
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 2
Then select your location:
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 3
Choose a keyboard layout (you will be asked to press a few keys, and the installer will try to detect your keyboard layout based on the keys you pressed):
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 4
The installer checks the installation CD, your hardware, and configures the network with DHCP if there is a DHCP server in the network:
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 5
Enter the hostname. In this example, my system is called server1.example.com, so I enter server1:
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 6
Now you have to partition your hard disk. For simplicity's sake I select Guided use entire disk and set up LVM this will create one volume group with two logical volumes, one for the / file system and another one for swap (of course, the partitioning is totally up to you if you know what you're doing, you can also set up your partitions manually).
Select the disk that you want to partition:
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 7
When you're asked Write the changes to disks and configure LVM?, select Yes:
If you have selected Guided use entire disk and set up LVM, the partitioner will create one big volume group that uses all the disk space. You can now specify how much of that disk space should be used by the logical volumes for / and swap. It makes sense to leave some space unused so that you can later on expand your existing logical volumes or create new ones this gives you more flexibility.
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 8
When you're finished, hit Yes when you're asked Write the changes to disks?:
Afterwards, your new partitions are being created and formatted:
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 9
Now the base system is being installed:
Create a user, for example the user Administrator with the user name administrator (don't use the user name admin as it is a reserved name on Ubuntu 9.04):
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 10
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 11
I don't need an encrypted private directory, so I choose No here:
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 12
Next the package manager apt gets configured. Leave the HTTP proxy line empty unless you're using a proxy server to connect to the Internet:
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 13
I'm a little bit oldfashioned and like to update my servers manually to have more control, therefore I select No automatic updates. Of course, it's up to you what you select here:
We need a DNS, mail, and LAMP server, but nevertheless I don't select any of them now because I like to have full control over what gets installed on my system. We will install the needed packages manually later on. The only item I select here is OpenSSH server so that I can immediately connect to the system with an SSH client such as PuTTY after the installation has finished:
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 14
The installation continues:
The GRUB boot loader gets installed:
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 15
The base system installation is now finished. Remove the installation CD from the CD drive and hit Continue to reboot the system:
On to the next step...
4 Get root Privileges After the reboot you can login with your previously created username (e.g. administrator). Because we must run all the steps from this tutorial with root privileges, we can either prepend all commands in this tutorial with the string sudo, or we become root right now by typing
(You can as well enable the root login by running
and giving root a password. You can then directly log in as root, but this is frowned upon by the Ubuntu developers and community for various reasons. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=765414.)
5 Install The SSH Server (Optional) If you did not install the OpenSSH server during the system installation, you can do it now:
From now on you can use an SSH client such as PuTTY and connect from your workstation to your
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 16
sudo su
sudo passwd root
aptitude install ssh opensshserver
Ubuntu 9.04 server and follow the remaining steps from this tutorial.
6 Install vimnox (Optional)I'll use vi as my text editor in this tutorial. The default vi program has some strange behaviour on Ubuntu and Debian; to fix this, we install vimnox:
(You don't have to do this if you use a different text editor such as joe or nano.)
7 Configure The NetworkBecause the Ubuntu installer has configured our system to get its network settings via DHCP, we have to change that now because a server should have a static IP address. Edit /etc/network/interfaces and adjust it to your needs (in this example setup I will use the IP address 192.168.0.100):
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interfaceauto loiface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interfaceauto eth0iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.0.100 netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.0.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255 gateway 192.168.0.1
Then restart your network:
Then edit /etc/hosts. Make it look like this:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost192.168.0.100 server1.example.com server1
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopbackfe00::0 ip6-localnetff00::0 ip6-mcastprefixff02::1 ip6-allnodesff02::2 ip6-allroutersff02::3 ip6-allhosts
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 17
aptitude install vimnox
vi /etc/network/interfaces
/etc/init.d/networking restart
vi /etc/hosts
Now run
Afterwards, run
Both should show server1.example.com now.
8 Edit /etc/apt/sources.list And Update Your Linux InstallationEdit /etc/apt/sources.list. Comment out or remove the installation CD from the file and make sure that the universe and multiverse repositories are enabled. It should look like this:
# deb cdrom:[Ubuntu-Server 9.04 _Jaunty Jackalope_ - Release amd64 (20090421.1)]/ jaunty main restricted

Then run
to update the apt package database and
to install the latest updates (if there are any). If you see that a new kernel gets installed as part of the updates, you should reboot the system afterwards:
9 Change The Default Shell/bin/sh is a symlink to /bin/dash, however we need /bin/bash, not /bin/dash. Therefore we do this:
If you don't do this, the ISPConfig installation will fail.
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 19
aptitude update
aptitude safeupgrade
reboot
dpkgreconfigure dashInstall dash as /bin/sh? < No
10 Disable AppArmorAppArmor is a security extension (similar to SELinux) that should provide extended security. In my opinion you don't need it to configure a secure system, and it usually causes more problems than advantages (think of it after you have done a week of troubleshooting because some service wasn't working as expected, and then you find out that everything was ok, only AppArmor was causing the problem). Therefore I disable it (this is a must if you want to install ISPConfig later on).
We can disable it like this:
11 Synchronize the System ClockIt is a good idea to synchronize the system clock with an NTP (network time protocol) server over the Internet. Simply run
and your system time will always be in sync.
12 Install Postfix, Courier, Saslauthd, MySQL, phpMyAdmin, rkhunter, binutilsWe can install Postfix, Courier, Saslauthd, MySQL, phpMyAdmin, rkhunter, and binutils with a single command:
You will be asked the following questions:
We want MySQL to listen on all interfaces, not just localhost, therefore we edit /etc/mysql/my.cnf and comment out the line bindaddress = 127.0.0.1:
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 20
/etc/init.d/apparmor stopupdaterc.d f apparmor removeaptitude remove apparmor apparmorutils
aptitude install ntp ntpdate

vi /etc/mysql/my.cnf
[...]# Instead of skip-networking the default is now to listen only on# localhost which is more compatible and is not less secure.#bind-address = 127.0.0.1[...]
Then we restart MySQL:
Now check that networking is enabled. Run
The output should look like this:
During the installation, the SSL certificates for IMAPSSL and POP3SSL are created with the hostname localhost. To change this to the correct hostname (server1.example.com in this tutorial), delete the certificates...
... and modify the following two files; replace CN=localhost with CN=server1.example.com (you can also modify the other values, if necessary):
Then recreate the certificates...

[...]CN=server1.example.com[...]
/etc/init.d/mysql restart

... and restart CourierIMAPSSL and CourierPOP3SSL:
13 Install Amavisdnew, SpamAssassin, And ClamavTo install amavisdnew, SpamAssassin, and ClamAV, we run
14 Install Apache2, PHP5, phpMyAdmin, FCGI, suExec, Pear, And mcrypt Apache2, PHP5, phpMyAdmin, FCGI, suExec, Pear, and mcrypt can be installed as follows:
You will see the following question:
Then run the following command to enable the Apache modules suexec, rewrite, ssl, actions, and include:
Secure phpMyAdmin by deleting the /etc/phpmyadmin/htpasswd.setup file...
... and remove or comment out the following section in /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf:

Restart Apache afterwards:
15 Install PureFTPd And Quota PureFTPd and quota can be installed with the following command:
Edit the file /etc/default/pureftpdcommon...
... and make sure that the start mode is set to standalone and set VIRTUALCHROOT=true:
[...]STANDALONE_OR_INETD=standalone[...]VIRTUALCHROOT=true[...]
Then restart PureFTPd:
Edit /etc/fstab. Mine looks like this (I added ,usrquota,grpquota to the partition with the mount point /):

/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
aptitude install pureftpdcommon pureftpdmysql quota quotatool

To enable quota, run these commands:
16 Install MyDNSBefore we install MyDNS, we need to install a few prerequisites:
MyDNS is not available in the Ubuntu 9.04 repositories, therefore we have to build it ourselves as follows:
Next we create the start/stop script for MyDNS:
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 24
aptitude install g++ libc6 gcc gawk make texinfo libmysqlclient15dev
vi /etc/init.d/mydns
touch /quota.user /quota.groupchmod 600 /quota.*mount o remount /quotacheck avugmquotaon avug
cd /tmpwget http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/mydnsng/mydns1.2.8.27.tar.gz

case "$1" in start) echo -n "Starting $DESC: $NAME" start-stop-daemon --start --quiet \ --exec $DAEMON -- -b echo "." ;; stop) echo -n "Stopping $DESC: $NAME" start-stop-daemon --stop --oknodo --quiet \ --exec $DAEMON echo "." ;; reload|force-reload) echo -n "Reloading $DESC configuration..." start-stop-daemon --stop --signal HUP --quiet \ --exec $DAEMON echo "done." ;; restart) echo -n "Restarting $DESC: $NAME" start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --oknodo \ --exec $DAEMON sleep 1 start-stop-daemon --start --quiet \ --exec $DAEMON -- -b echo "." ;; *) echo "Usage: $SCRIPTNAME {start|stop|restart|reload|force-reload}" >&2 exit 1 ;;esac
exit 0
Then we make the script executable and create the system startup links for it:
The Perfect Server Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3] Page 25
chmod +x /etc/init.d/mydnsupdaterc.d mydns defaults
17 Install Vlogger And WebalizerVlogger and webalizer can be installed as follows:
18 Install JailkitJailkit is needed only if you want to chroot SSH users. It can be installed as follows (important: Jailkit must be installed before ISPConfig it cannot be installed afterwards!):
cd /tmpwget http://olivier.sessink.nl/jailkit/jailkit2.5.tar.gztar xvfz jailkit2.5.tar.gzcd jailkit2.5./configuremakemake installcd ..rm rf jailkit2.5*
19 Install fail2banThis is optional but recommended, because the ISPConfig monitor tries to show the fail2ban log:
20 Install SquirrelMailTo install the SquirrelMail webmail client, run
Then create the following symlink...
... and configure SquirrelMail:
We must tell SquirrelMail that we are using CourierIMAP/POP3:
