We were running DA on Redhat, but the machine crashed on us severely last week so we need to rebuild it. We' re thinking of running it on FreeBSD this time, have more faith in that... now that we have a chance to build it from scratch I'd like to know if we can install DA without the following components:
- FrontPage Extensions - simply do not want to support those
- Majordomo/vm-pop/WU-IMAP/webmail - all our clients use our existing email platform
- bind - we use our existing nameservers
Would this pose any problems in running DA? I understand I can disable these features for users and use a firewall to block the ports, but I'd rather just not have any software installed that won't be used anyway.
Also, we'd like to create the httpd.conf from our main administrative platform, which will allow us to automatically create server aliasses, redirects/rewrites and so on. But I'd still like to offer users the possibility to create their own subdomains and domain redirects. Any chance this might work?
Thanks!
Hans
