Hey Savvy, thanks for the videos can you make a video showing how to install WHM/cpanel?

[@SavvyNik]

No Problem, glad it helped! I can add it to the list, not sure when I'd get around to it tho.

Hey Savvy any way you can go over making a mail server! THANKS

[@MotionInMotion1975]

Nik, is there e GUI for Apache, like IIS for Windows?

[@SavvyNik]

Traditionally no because the server itself is headless so it doesn't really support GUI applications. Although if you install the desktop version I believe there is an app called apache-gui that could do what you are asking. Most of the time everything is managed through the terminal.

Hi savvy, My ping command is working and the services (http/https) are also active, still the browser on other computer says that the site can't be reached.

hi Savvy, when i ping the ip on the desktop site, its not a reply, its a request timed out, its normally?

[@SavvyNik]

This isn't normal. You need a reply otherwise the computer you are pinging with does not have access to the server / isn't on the same network as the server.

Hi Savvy, Im totally new in Linux and all the features to use with that. Im using my CentOS 8 in a virtual box, and most of the steps I was able to do. However, the IP, Im not able to make reply in a different computer or access via webpage. I dont really know, what command that I might be able to use to enable it. Any ideas?

[@SavvyNik]

You're saying that you can't ping your VM from other computers on your local network? Check your virtual machine settings and confirm that the network settings are correct. I suggest using a bridged adapter so that the VM gets it's own unique IP address.

[@szymon98633]

@@SavvyNik Hi Savvy, what if I set bridged adapter and "ifconfig" doesn't show my IP address? There is no "inet" in enp0s3.

Hi Savvy. Thanks for the videos. I need your help with an error message i am having. Tried all i could but still having "unable to connect to proxy server." i don't know if it's necessary to configure the proxy in other to use 'YUM' but however i did but still having the message.I know i am missing something somewhere. CentOS 8

[@SavvyNik]

Hey dj, glad you enjoy the videos. Are you trying to use yum with a proxy? If not check your /etc/yum.conf file and make sure there's no mentions of proxies in there. If there is I would delete the entries.

[@djdavjean]

@@SavvyNik Thanks for your quick response. In yum.com file there are no proxies mentioned. Well, i am trying to register to redhat site as requested so that i will be able to download packages for further intsallations with 'YUM'. I am still having error message " network error, unable to connect to server". However i can Ping to sites as "www.google.com". I hope you can help. Thanks

[@SavvyNik]

@@djdavjean I'm not sure then. If you can truly ping out then there's either a miss-match in your network settings (IPv6 vs IPv4 miss-config) or the yum.conf file is corrupt. Here's a post with someone who had similar issues: forums.centos.org/viewtopic.php?t=63820

[@TheShockwave323]

do these commands work in centos 7 as well ??

[@SavvyNik]

Yeah they should.

[@ajayys3925]

Hey Savvy. I'm new to linux. Is the above process possible if I'm simulating my linux environment inside a virtual machine running on my Windows OS ?

[@SavvyNik]

Sure, there might just be some additional steps to get ports opened up between your host computer and the virtual machine. I suggest using a bridged adapter because that would make things easier if your VM has a dedicated network connection.

Hello, I just want to ask. How can I configure it to use domain name and not by IP. ?

[@SavvyNik]

Edit the hosts file for a localdomain and subscribe ;)
