I love ISPConfig

This post does not directly relate to Karen’s software, but I wanted to publicly post that I love ISPConfig.

https://www.ispconfig.org/

I’ve been economizing our server setup by downsizing to a limited memory plan at Linode.com. One of the big consumers of memory on the server was Spam checking. Frankly, it was too sensitive anyway, plus it liked to use more than 1 gigabyte of ram. I figured I’d have to reconfigure a new server, then port all the sites and mail accounts to it in order to cleanly get it disconnected. OR, I’d have to look closely into how the ClamAV service was integrated, another possible horror. Instead, I just set all my email domains to “WANT ALL SPAM” and ISPConfig stopped ClamAV from running at all.

If you want to see how easy it is to set up a server for hosting multiple websites, with email, rootkit hunter, and hacking guards, check out

Thanks, Till for all your work on ISPConfig. In the past I paid for the manual, but really I need to send more money.
