RE: [cobalt-users] RAQ 3 and Web Pages being served

["Nicholas Irving" <nirving@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,
I found an answer to may pain.
I have created a mail only site, that does not have a web page being
displayed.
Okay the only problem is that you need more than 1 ip address, which does
not help those who have only one, but I am determined to get this working.
Plus I am not sure if this a fix Cobalt will support, but the page where I
got it from does not have the big bold writing saying unsupported feature.
http://www.cobalt.com/support/kb/search.php3?ques=ip&qid=12&language=1

1. edit your /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file
2. Find the line Listen :80
3. Change that to listen to only the IP addresses you want the web server to
listen on.
4. setup your mail server to use any address you are not listening on.
5. Use as normal.

This means that the web server will listen for any http requests on the IP
given, others will not respond. The downside to this is that port 81 is
still listening, but unless you know what you are looking for (which is
fairly easy to do) people will not get there.

This may not be the only way to do this, but since I am 5 hours ahead of the
US, it will do as a temporary measure.

Thanks all for your replies,
All I want to do is use the domain as a mail server and nothing else, and
the only way I see of adding mail users is to add a virtual site. I should
have added this to the orignal email.

Is there an undocumented way of doing this?

It's "doing this" because a RaQ3 is supposed to host websites for its
domains.

If you don't want to serve webpages, what do you want to do?

Most of the things you might want to do can probably be done on your RaQ
without setting up a site at all.
