MB> Now for future installations you might want this to be automised:
MB> Edit the /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/Cobalt/Vsite.pm module
MB> Scroll down until the vsite_add function ( sub ):

MB> Replace these lines :
MB> my ($addr,$name,$group,$serveradmin,$mask) = @_;
MB> my($found_interface,$found_namev,$conf,$new_conf,$found_group);
MB> my $ret;


MB> with these lines :
MB> my ($addr,$name,$group,$serveradmin,$mask) = @_;
MB> my $emaildomain = substr($name,4,length($name));
MB> my($found_interface,$found_namev,$conf,$new_conf,$found_group);
MB> my $ret;


MB> And then these lines:
MB> <VirtualHost $addr>
MB> ServerName $name
MB> ServerAdmin $serveradmin
MB> CustomLog $Htgroup_dir/$group/$Logdir/webnew.log combined
MB> Alias /stats $Htgroup_dir/$group/stats
MB> DocumentRoot $Htgroup_dir/$group/$Webdir
MB> RewriteEngine on
MB> RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}                !^$addr(:80)?$my
MB> RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}                !^$name(:80)?$my
MB> RewriteRule ^/(.*)                      http://$name/\$1 [L,R]
MB> RewriteOptions inherit
MB> AliasMatch ^/~([^/]+)(/(.*))? $Htgroup_dir/$group/users/\$1/web/\$3
MB> AliasMatch ^/users/([^/]+)(/(.*))? $Htgroup_dir/$group/users/\$1/web/\$3
MB> </VirtualHost>



MB> with these lines:
MB> <VirtualHost $addr>
MB> ServerName $name
MB> ServerAdmin $serveradmin
MB> CustomLog $Htgroup_dir/$group/$Logdir/webnew.log combined
MB> Alias /stats $Htgroup_dir/$group/stats

MB> php_admin_value sendmail_path  " /usr/sbin/sendmail -t
MB> -i-fcatchall\@$emaildomain"
MB> </VirtualHost>

MB> The sendmail_path line has to be on one line off course !!


MB> Now for some explanations,
MB> The first extra php_admin_value, sets the upload directory to be the root of
MB> the website. No more /tmp filling up.

MB> The second extra php_admin_value, stops php from accessing file outside of
MB> the websites folder.

MB> The third extra php_admin_value will set a default return path, within all
MB> mails sent  via the mail() function of PHP, it will still allow you to
MB> specifiy the other headers such as From, Reply-to etc via this function


MB> These cobalt boxes are very nice, and with some Linux knowledge, you can
MB> make them even better :-))

MB> People don't always believe what Cobalt says, because if you scroll through
MB> the Vsite perl module of a RaQ3, you'll find out that it contains functions
MB> such as:
MB> vsite_get_php3
MB> vsite_set_php3

MB> And this althought these boxes are sold without PHP :-))


MB> Hope this helps.
