Something not right fresh install

[FIXED]Something not right fresh install

[FIXED] Turns out /usr/local/directadmin/conf/directadmin.conf was set up wrong since im on vps i needed this setting ethernet_dev=venet0:0 and it worked perfect, i did a direct admin restart just to make sure..


well just installed directadmin earlier, and it works fine... kind of..

my ip works says Apache is functioning normally

but im able to connnect to myip:2222

anyone have any idea??

Is directadmin running?

can you access by the hostname:2222

Unable to access it via hostname:2222 =-/ its a fresh install, why wouldn't directadmin be running =-/

is there any guides on setting up nameservers? as i've looked around read a little bit, and still stuck!?

Its amazing what can be accomplished when directions are follwed.

Special notice for VPS/VDS installs:
After the install, add:

ethernet_dev=devicename

for example, on many vps systems it will be:
ethernet_dev=venet0:0

other systems where the IP is not the base IP on the device, you'd need to simply set the correct number:
ethernet_dev=eth0:1

or other systems with the IP on a different device, it might be:
ethernet_dev=eth1

type: /sbin/ifconfig
to see which device your IP is in.
to /usr/local/directadmin/conf/directadmin.conf.

Replace devicename with the FULL devicename reported by ifconfig. If your VDS/VPS system emulates eth0, then you may skip this step.
