http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?70762-Plesk-Firewall-amp-IP-Range You want to use the bitmask at the end, heres a quick cheat sheet: 11.11.11.11/32 <- just the host 11.11.11.11 11.11.11.0/24 <- the whole 11.11.11.0 network (254 ips) 11.11.0.0/16 <- the 11.11.0.0 network (64k ips) 11.0.0.0/8 <- the 11.0.0.0 network (16million ips) Ahh taking out germany huh. So netmasks can be kind of daunting if you don't understand the guts of tcp/ip. Short version, the bitmask is a binary representation of a network block. So what that means is that in binary this: 255.255.255.0 looks like 11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000 and if you add all those 1's up you get: 24 It helps if you can do math in binary. Which is probably one of the least useful skills a person can have. Its actually my 2nd least useful skill, my first is I can also read heiroglyphics. But I digress, the answer for your firewall netblocks question is you need 2 networks: ...

I found that horde will use 'popen' function to open /var/qmail/bin/sendmail. And will use 'escapeshellcmd' function to send an e-mail. After removed those two functions from 'disable_functions' parameter (/etc/php.ini), horde and mail system will be OK.  escapeshellarg - removed this function in disable_functions. [which means enabled in php.ini]      It's just a setting change:     edit /usr/share/psa-horde/config/conf.php.     Change the line that says:     $conf['mailer']['type'] = 'sendmail';     to     $conf['mailer']['type'] = 'smtp'; http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?75426-Failed-to-open-sendmail-Horde-not-sending-emails

mod_pagespeed caches resources to disk. If you are running on a heavily loaded server or a VPS, disk IO is a premium. So we should really cache to memory, its faster, cheaper and easy to set up. Put this in /etc/fstab, please change the uid & guid to the appropiate user & group of your apache webserver, and the path to your needs. Feel free to change the size (here it is 256Mb) and set to use the httpd user.     tmpfs /var/www/mod_pagespeed/cache tmpfs size=256m,mode=0775,uid=httpd,gid=httpd 0 0 Save it, and after that mount the tmpfs: /bin/mount tmpfs /var/mod_pagespeed/cache -i -t tmpfs mod_pagespeed will now be even faster!

[root@tlondon ~]# mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /ephemeral mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on tmpfs,        missing codepage or helper program, or other error        (for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might        need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program)        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try        dmesg | tail  or so TRY this, [root@tlondon packages]# /bin/mount tmpfs /ephemeral -i -t tmpfs /bin/mount tmpfs /var/mod_pagespeed/cache -i -t tmpfs

It is recommended to run these commands in a screen (remote management module console) session as you will likely lose the SSH connection as soon as the new settings are applied Important: Ensure that Ethtool is installed on your operating system before proceeding further.

After transferring some web sites to new server, most of them (joomla, and similar php applications) stopped working because of errors like "fatal error: out of memory" After research, it turned out that reason is too low RLimitMEM parameter in httpd.conf.

At first,Need to compile the dual php,please follow the below link:  http://servermanagement24x7.com/how-to-configure-dual-php-or-two-versions-of-php-on-a-linux-cpanel-server.html 1. We need to enable/install suphp module in apache via easyapche or manually. 2. Add the suphp module in php.conf, After the DSO module entry,add the entry as below. LoadModule suphp_module modules/mod_suphp.so suPHP_Engine on <Directory />     suPHP_AddHandler application/x-httpd-php53---->for php5.3 </Directory> 3. Set Userid for suphp binary file. chmod u+s /opt/suphp/sbin/suphp That's all.
