LxCenter, the new LxLabs, now has its own website.
The specifically designed template is soon to be finished and will be implemented shortly thereafter.
Check back soon for the new design.
Installation
Important Post Installation Step Make sure that you open the ports 7778 and 7777 in the firewall. Otherwise you won't be able to connect to kloxo. You have to disable selinux by editing /etc/sysconfig/selinux and changing the line to selinux=disabled and then running
$ setenforce 0
Kloxo installation consists of downloading either the kloxo-install-master.sh or kloxo-install-slave.sh from download.lxlabs.com and executing them as root. They will download all the required files and do the complete installation on their own.
You will presented with a question/menu from yum/up2date, on which you can press <Enter>
Kloxo will install:
Web server:
apache
pure-ftp
awstats
Mail server:
qmail-toaster
courier (imap pop)
webmail
httpd (for webmail)
Nameserver:
bind
bind-chroot
Database Server:
mysql-server
Once kloxo is installed, you can connect to 'http://machine-name:7778', and you will be presented with a login screen - the password would be 'admin'. Once you login, Kloxo will explicitly force you to change the password to something other than 'admin'.
If you want to have a cluster, you have to run 'kloxo-install-slave.sh' in all the servers that you intend to make as slaves. Once 'kloxo-install-slave.sh' is completed, you can add the server from the 'add server' page in the master's server page. From then on, you can manage every aspect of the server through our intuitive graphical interface. We expect you to have a great time managing your hosting through kloxo. IF you run into any problems, please visit our forum at our website 'http://lxlabs.com/forum', and you can ask your query there. Since our forum is integrated with mailing list which in turn has our main developers as members, you can get direct answers from the developers themselves.
Upgrading kloxo is as easy as click of button. The 'update home' page will show you the latest version of kloxo available, and the 'release notes' listing will tell you the changes that happened since your version, in a very clear format - the bug fix/security fix/feature additions all will be displayed in different colors and clearly identifiable in the listing. This wil help you in making a decision about how critical is the upgradation of kloxo, and how soon it should be updated. The release notes will also contain any special information the user should know after the upgradation is done. All this makes sure that your 'managing the server' days are over, and you can entirely focus your time more productively on your business.
