This is a detailed description about how to set up a CentOS 4.4 based server that offers all services needed by ISPs and hosters (web server (SSL-capable), mail server (with SMTP-AUTH and TLS!), DNS server, FTP server, MySQL server, POP3/IMAP, Quota, Firewall, etc.). This tutorial is written for the 32-bit version of CentOS 4.4, but should apply to the 64-bit version with very little modifications as well.
I will use the following software:
Web Server: Apache 2.0.x
Database Server: MySQL 4.1
Mail Server: Postfix (easier to configure than sendmail; has a shorter history of security holes than sendmail)
DNS Server: BIND9 (chrooted!)
FTP Server: proftpd
POP3/IMAP server: dovecot
Webalizer for web site statistics
In the end you should have a system that works reliably, and if you like you can install the free webhosting control panel ISPConfig (i.e., ISPConfig runs on it out of the box).
I want to say first that this is not the only way of setting up such a system. There are many ways of achieving this goal but this is the way I take. I do not issue any guarantee that this will work for you!
Requirements
To install such a system you will need the following:
Download the 4 CentOS 4.4 CD iso images from a mirror near you (the list of mirrors can be found here: http://www.centos.org/modules/tinycontent/index.php?id=13).
an internet connection...
1 Install The Base System
Boot from your CentOS 4.4 CD (CD 1).
It can take a long time to test the installation media so we skip this test here:
