You need to run those commands from ssh as root.

OK, these 3 are fine, show then results of this command

# netstat -an | grep LISTEN

By the way, have you ever been successful to login into Directadmin?

 

[tokyosama]

I was able to successful login into Directadmin since last saturday but now it won't connect me to directadmin login page. My site is still running though directadmin but i'm unable to connect to directadmin login page now

Seems your directadmin is only listening on IPv6 and not on IPv4, did you edit the conf file?

 

[zEitEr]

login as:

Read the link I gave you earlier to learn how to bind Directadmin to IPv4:2222

do i enter in using ssh

Is it a question? You might need to open link http://www.directadmin.com/features.php?id=1168 in your favorite browser and read it.

Here is a section for Debian:

*** EDIT for one reported case on Debian ***
This is not part of the update, but for this reported case, it was required to make DA work on IPv4:
/etc/sysctl.d/bindv6only.conf

change:
net.ipv6.bindv6only = 1

to
net.ipv6.bindv6only = 0

and type:
echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/bindv6only

p.s. If you don't know how to deal with this, you'd better ask your DC for help or hire somebody from these forums: Andrea Iannucci, me and some other guys are ready to give you a commerce service to solve your issue.

Regarding that link where do you go to change it. I can use my ftp to look at my files and upload, email, but i cant login to my DirectAdmin it loads like a turtle. I have been able to login and as well my site works but now its like i cant use DirectAdmin. I know i didn't touch anything that would cause that.

Help

I've already posted all above http://www.directadmin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=42640&p=215924#post215924

Login as root via SSH and follow the steps.

p.s. If you don't know what to do, or how to do... you're free to hire somebody from these forums. We are all here don't work for Directadmin, we are users and administrators of servers powered by Directadmin. Some of us can give you a commerce service to solve your issue.
