Unless it's sponsored by Imatix itself, it is quite pointless, since they are too much initiatives, diluting the Xitami community even more. My proposition was a forum, like http://freedns.afraid.org/forums/index.php were two (or more) forums are available, one for general questions/responses, one for important information (with restricted access to disallow newbees posting). marc --::Mailserver Verfaillie Bauwens::-- contact [postmaster@verfaillie.com] Alle mails gecontroleerd op virussen.

On another note, I do use IRC all the time - from home and from work - because it is a great instant resource. With IRC you don't need to wait hours for answers. Having been a user for quite some time, though, I do recommend using another base server besides irc.freenode.net. I was on it last night and realized that the freenode.net server is very isolated from the rest of the IRC servers. On the other servers no one was on #xitami - I had to switch over to freenode.net in order to find Mr. Thomas who recommended we do this to begin with. I use irc.qeast.net and irc.mindspring.com = they are very well connected and tap you into the largest IRC communities. There are plenty other popular ones as well but those are the most convenient for me. Someone should create a bot for the #xitami channel too, that way there is always a presence on the channel. I also believe if the iMatix folks simply list it next to their support information that Xitami users will automatically gravitate to it. An iMatix endorsement is what its going to take for any forum to work. Its like asking "who wants to play basketball?" versus "who wants to play basketball with Michael Jordan?" - which do you think will get a bigger turnout? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ron Ackerman" To: Sent: Tuesday, February 01, 2005 6:43 AM Subject: RE: [Xitami] Community > I also proposed a Forum on one of the hottest boards on the net INReview > www.inreview.com and it was poo pooed so I just dropped it.

Instead of telling people to join a server in particular, it might be

I think it's time to change employers. Anyway, I have been running Xitami on Win2k for a couple of years. All my problems were caused by Windows, viruses, spywear or bad bots. Once I encountered and fixed the problems Xitami chugges right along and doesn't crash. Doing a search on the Archives reveals a lot but if your job won't let you, you may have to do it at home. A couple of things. Are you running Xitami with FTP enabled? Are you running the Xitam GUI (the little Icon in the system tray)? As a whole, I think Xitami doesn't crash without help from external souces. But you need to give us more information, which is probably why nobody answered you a week or so ago.

You are a rare breed David, I guess you can be proud of that! When the time comes and you find that this other alternative you seek, just does not add up. We will all be here to help you and let by gones be by gones. As to the constant crashing you state??? I have run Xitami on multiple platforms with a multitude of hardware configurations, NOT once, and I repeat NOT ONCE has Xitami EVER crashed on me? The only annoyance with Xitami I have ever experienced is the fact that whenever I add a new Virtual Host, I have to hard boot Xitami for it to take affect, whoopee??? I can live with it. I am sure there is a fix, or someone in this forum would probably give me an answer for this fix, but hey, who cares, for all the positive features that Xitami gives me, tis worth it.

I'm an IRC beginner myself, so I have no special reason for using one or the other. I will gladly join another server, if I'm told how and where. :o) Let's have the info Russel, so we can get this project started for real. Also I've read a lot of posts on this community subject. It seems as if there's as many opinions as there are a members on the list! On the whole I do think we can agree on one thing: An active and living community would be good for Xitami, and if it's good for Xitami, it's good for the people who use it. So what to do? Should we just stay with the current solution, or should we try to create some sort of "hub" for Xitami info/discussion? I would personally love to see a combined solution. Something along the lines of the mailing-list, a web forum and an IRC channel. All this could be centered around a website where we tried to keep up with tips and tricks, problem solutions, case stories and general debate. I will gladly help out with hosting such a site. Let's get this debate on the road. Xitami is IMHO a great program - it deserves a great platform for information/support/whatnot..

Once I encountered and fixed the problems Xitami chugges right along and doesn't crash. Doing a search on the Archives reveals a lot but if your job won't let you, you may have to do it at home. A couple of things. Are you running Xitami with FTP enabled? Are you running the Xitam GUI (the little Icon in the system tray)?

Mailinglists can easily be placed on a webpage also and a forum can easily be tweaked to correspond with the mailinglist. There could be a special forum where a weekly or daily digest of the list was posted for everyone to read. Let people find the information they want where they want and how they want. That is the key to a healthy and active community. Restricting information to one format is not. :o) Thomas David Edick wrote: >the problem with having three seperate channels for people to use is when a >user has a question on say, the mailing list, and the people who have the >answer are not checking the mailing list because they are using the web >forum, then those people are not a community. they don't interact. when you >enable several different forms of communication, each reach a different >audience of people. if there were possible to integrate the web forum and >email list so that you post to the email and it were also posted to the web >forum and the reverse were also possible, then you would have a better >option. > >an irc chat only involves those people who are online at that moment. unless >those chats were archived, it only helps the people in the conversation. >then you have issues with irc chats for people who can't use them due to a >print disability and need to use reading software to access their computer. >they cant use irc even if they wanted to because information moves so >quickly that it is impossible to keep up. > >Thanks for taking the time to read this, > >/David > >-----Original Message----- >From: xitami-admin@lists.xitami.org >[mailto:xitami-admin@lists.xitami.org]On Behalf Of Thomas >Sent: Wednesday, February 02, 2005 12:08 PM >To: xitami@lists.xitami.org >Subject: Re: [Xitami] Community > > >This isn't specifically aimed at your post Johannes, but I feel I must >correct a common misconception: Adding an IRC channel, webforum or >whatever will NOT remove the mailinglist.

You can do so through the GUI or just edit the file directly. The files are ftdirs.aut and ftpusers.aut In the file ftpdirs.aut you name the directories you want to be accessed by ftp or browser from the users you define . Here an example entry [../webpages/dirname] username = "*" [dirname] username = "P" anonymus = "G" Between the " " you have to define the access right. Make sure you have a "space" between = and " For anyone to download you can use anonymus = "G" as username and user right for this particular directory. For the second file ftpusers.aut it would look as follows. In this file you define the users right to connect, the root (dir), password... Here the sample [username] Access = "P" Aliases = "0" Hard-quota = "" Password = "whatever-you-want" Pipe = "" Root = "dirname" Soft-quota = "" Use-quotas = "0" For your example you would have to create 2 entries for the same root; one entry for the user ( username) and one entry for the visitors (anonymus) who should be able to ONLY download, as I understood correct. For the user Access = "P" For the visitor Access = "G" Both entries would have the same root = "dirname" The directories which you want to create don't have to be in \ftproot . I have, as example, set \webpages with its directories for the virtual domains to access by ftp only for myself. If I'm correct, xitami finds the way to the correct directory mainly through the username / directory entries in ftpdirs.aut I hope this description is clear enough.If not, let me know and I will try to explain it better. 2 Feb 2005 um 13:11 hat Alex Barna geschrieben: > Windows XP, Xitami 2.5c1 5MBS cable connection. > > I haven't used the ftp part of xitami & had it set to o off..

Ok, those files exist. ftpdirs.aut currently reads; [] Admin=* I just want to use the pub directory & if I understand what xitami & you said, if I want to allow uploads to the default ftp://myswbsite pub directory, could I just change ftpdirs.aut to; [pub] anonymous= "G" [pub] username = "GP" username being the name of the person I want to allow to upload ?

I'd prefer a modern forum already mentioned by others. Such a thing could easily replace the mailing list if there were a need for replacement and enhance it probably.

I know to guess a password is hard, but impossible ? I'm using xitami like other people too and we are the good guys, but the bad ones who would know about xitami would be able to start trying the usernames which are there already.

One thing you didn't mention is whether you are on a windows machine or non-windows. I am on a Win2k pc. 1. I use 1st Class Mail Server at www.1cis.com It's very easy to use. You can pay for the domain email as you need them at $65 per domain. 2. look at AIT for domain registration $7.95 per domain I don't think can be beat. I am a domain reseller but I don't have everything set up just yet. 3. Except for ths software you use, you need to check with your State, to see if there is any kind of fee. I don't believe there are but you never know. 4. I'm not sure what that would be? Someone else would have to answer that. 5. Templates, depends on what you want to spend, whether you want to auto generate certain tasks. And as someone else said, you need to check your DSL TOS. Know even though they may have a clause forbidding it, you would probably be fine until your bandwidth got very high. Also you have to think about whether your DSL company will give you a static IP. If not you will have to use a dynamic IP updating service like DNS2GO or GO2MYDNS. I use both one is a back up of the other. I plan to move to a business DSL account in the future which will allow the traffic and give me a static IP. And if you are on a Dynamic IP none of your websites will be able to send email to AOL customers. Ron Hi All I have been using Xitami in on single PC's and LAN for years.

Important to note: even though you might be able to *get away with it*, when the ISP finally folds your account for TOS reasons, every one of your hosted websites will cease to be connected to the web.

Since it's a business account I'm sure you'll be fine for quite a long time. Speed will be fine for awhile too. It will take a little longer for users to pull up a webpage vs being on a T1 or OC3 as in a server farm. Xitami is pretty fast. The nice thing about DSL is you aren't fighting for bandwidth with everyone in the neighborhood, unlike cable. I had Time Warner and everyday about 6pm my connection slowed down to about 56k or at least it seemed like it. DSL for the most part especially from the phone company doensn't seem to have a problem. I hope you're going to upgrade from win98 and either go with win2k, winXP or win2003. Of course there are other good OS's too.

I still have them both running on a Windows 98 system along with Bind to provide DNS, Mail and Webservice. Actually Win98 doesn't do to bad for this on a small scale. Mercury Mail is totally free and good support is available via a mailing list with a web archive. Manuals with support are available if you want to purchase these. Currently I have Mercury running on Win98, XP, 2000 Server and 2003 Server in various configurations. When we recently registered a new domain we used GoDaddy. I am not familiar with a lot of the options, but I am happy with the results once I figured out how to get the right settings for our own DNS. It was somewhat different than the Network Solutions registration I was familiar with when I worked for a local ISP. Leon J.

Typically you see WS-FTP connecting correctly to the server (you see the hello message), but fails to retrieve a directory list. Browsers use passive connections, while WF-FTP by default uses active connection. You can set WS-FTP to use passive connections.

I do know how to fix this problem though. You must sit patiently for a day or two and twiddle your thumbs. There's something very magical about thumb-twiddling that just makes it go away. My mailbox is receiving the posts only once, so I'll guess the problem is either with your provider, or somewhere en route to your provider.

Check if your dynamic ip provider allows for redirects AKA webforwards. You need to create at least two records, the standard A record and then a non-standard webforward record.

Why go through all that trouble. Just use your firewall to block the offending ip address. After I blocked 3 Roadrunner addresses all the "get NT" type request stopped.

I have noticed myself that Yahoo's incoming MX relay mail servers (I don't use a smart-host for outgoing mail, and receive incoming by SMTP, not collect it by POP) can be very slow to respond sometimes. Typically, of the dozen or so servers that they advertise, connection attempts to the first 2--4 will time out, and it's only when my outgoing mail client tries one of the lower priority servers that I can send mail to Yahoogroups. If this happens for the mail intended for Yahoo customers too, it's not infeasible that the SMTP dialogue between Xitami's outgoing mail client and Yahoo's incoming server might be encountering similar difficulties: it is an artefact of SMTP exchanges that the sending end may not assume that the receiving end has safely got the mail until getting the correct response (after the terminating "." on a line of its own after the DATA command) and therefore may well resend it. Definitely a case of the configuration of the recipient's mail system, but probably not that local to him ;-P -- Brian {Hamilton Kelly} bhk@dsl.co.uk "Je n'ai fait celle-ci plus longue que parce que je n'ai pas eu le loisir de la faire plus courte."

Stuff like this in the Log & Error files. Note the RoadRunner IP address.
These are attempts to hack a windows server & just fill up the Xitami log file.

My attacks started coming in from all over the world - too many to simply block. Best is to setup another A Record (RR record in yi.org?) with your DNS like ww2.whatevers.com pointing to your IP (like your others). Then set up a forwarding record (WebForward) for www.whatevers.com to forward to http://ww2.whatevers.com:port#/ It is not necessary to "mask" the forwarded address since you have nothing to hide. This is done in your DNS service (I use ZoneEdit) but I'm not certain where yi.org handles web forwarding. Much Luck. ----- Original Message ----- From: Alex Barna To: xitami@lists.xitami.org Sent: Friday, February 11, 2005 11:45 AM Subject: Re: [Xitami] Changing Port 80 d calif wrote: > I have been getting attacked on port 80 with "get NT" type request. > The attacks increased from once a day to now multiple times.

(I have seen ref. search via google where others mention doing the port forward at yi.org.) I cannot see where I can enter the port, either as part of a url=mysite.yi.org:9948, or as part of the IP ie xxx.xx.xxx.xx:9948 either of these entries are not accepted. So I call out for help one more time. I have created a sample page of the yi.org account management screens. I would be grateful if someone who understands what needs to be done, look at the yi.org admin screens and yi.org help. Then explain to me in (NOT vague) but specific steps, how to accomplish the forwarding. YI.ORG Acct management screenshots http://snow.prohosting.com/mrmax0/yiorgsrn.html Note the only place I can enter a port is in the URL: entry = mysite.yi.org:9948, but it did not work either. Unless I'm suppose to put something like mysite.yi.org = mysite.yi.org:9948 which I have not tried, as I can't find anything regarding syntax that explains such an entry. I have emailed yi.org 3 times requesting help, but no joy there. (The ddns service is free, so I can't complain too loud.) Again..... any help is sincerely appreciated!

This only has an effect if you set your namespace's IP address to the IP address of the yi.org URL forwarding server."" No one is the correct IP for yi.org URL forwarding server. I pinged, I opened up DynSite's yi.org update script, searched google, newsgroups, etc. No where could I find that info. I will insert "Tyler MacDonald's " reply below, in case anyone else chooses yi.org for DDNS. Some may wonder why I didn't want to go to another DDNS. Mainly I like the yi short handle, plus yi.org is truely a free source for DDNS with a simple and from what I have read reliable approach. Thanks to those that checked out my page for trying to troubleshoot the yi.org setup. Tyler MacDonald's@yi.org Q. Do I setup a 2nd account that is mysite.yi.org:9948 and forward 1st acct to the new acct? A. Yes, only it's not a new account, it's a new host. Make the 2nd hostname "mrsite2.yi.org" or something. Update your IP on that host. On the 1st host (mysite.yi.org), make the ip 64.141.0.64 (yi.org's forwarding ip), and make the url "http://mysite2.yi.org:9948/". yi.org will forward all requests to http://mysite.yi.org/ to that url.

There are a few Denial of service vulnerabilities in older versions of xitami but I think most are patched now. I love Xitami so much I purchased the pro version. There are several advantages to running Xitami; speed, stability, ease of configuration, but I think one major advantage of running Xitami is often overlooked. That advantage is that there is such a small installed base out there that there is very little incentive for hackers target it. -----Original Message----- From: xitami-admin@lists.xitami.org [mailto:xitami-admin@lists.xitami.org]On Behalf Of Brian Kowald Sent: Thursday, February 17, 2005 1:38 PM To: 'Xitami-Post to list' Subject: [Xitami] How secure is Xitami as a Web Server Are there any known security risks or issues in using Xitami on Windows 2000 / XP Pro?

Steps;
1: download the zip from http://www.xitami.com/download.htm
2:  unzip the downloaded file,
3: Move the xitami-25  folder & all it's contents to the C:/ drive. I put a link to the folder on the desktop for easy access
4:  Put a shortcut to xigui32.exe on your desktop.
5:  run it & go through the test pages,
6: Right click the green circle with the X on the right side of your tool bar to stop the server.
7: Rename the "webpages" folder to "oldwebpages", don't delete it, the help file are in there.
8: make a new webpages folder & put your new index.html file & any new webpages &  folders in this folder.
9: the help file are in the xitami-25/app/oldwebpages/xitami  folder.

You're in business have fun.

Alex,

FTP now working! BUT! First note, I have a dynamic IP. To get FTP server operating I had to put the external IP in the default.cfg. Also Force IP to on.

You don't need to do that.

You ONLY have to put in the ip of your ftp server machine, something like 192.168......NOT the public ip !! 5. just click enable 6. click "apply" 7. in the next window "save settings ?" 8.click " yes" 9.

That worked. During the initial testing, we had tried using the external IP with 8021 and kept logging in, but no directories or data port 8020 connention in pasv. mode. From these test we falsely assumed that a hard IP was necessary in the FTP default.cfg settings to make passive FTP possible because of the following: xitami FTP behind [router firewall] ----- connecting ----- [user firewall] client behind firewall. As Johannes Prost kept trying to say that none of my previous setting were necessary, we finally tried it the SIMPLE way and it worked. NOTE: I did have to open more than port 8021 and 8020, I had to open a range from 8020 - 8030 and if I had more than 3 or 4 FTP users I would have to extend the range. I believe this is necessary due to my tester's FTP client software. Using the hard previous hard IP config, he always received the data port on 8020. After changing to domain setup, his client would change from 8020 thru 8025, during our test. >RE: FTP , data mode not working (Hogan Courrier) HOW FORTUNATE WE ARE TO HAVE SPAM IN THE XITAMI LIST! !!

Now I need a CMS (content managment system) that will work with Xitami. www.opensourcecms.com lists a bunch of PHP/mysql CMS programs, but most require Apache. I could spend days as YANB trying to get stuff working that just won't work with Xitami. SO please send list your recommendations. Also if you know of another Perl/Cgi based portal or CMS other than www.web-apps.org, please provide that info too. I have several sites I need to build 2 on my Xitami machine, and 2 on hosting services. On one hosting service as a community project, only Perl/cgi is available. Even though I like WebApps, I am looking for an alternative.
