A banana a day keeps the blue screens away! (or it might be the fact I don't run Windows, but we won't count that minor fact)

ooooooooooh! aaaaaaaaaaaaaah! *drool*

Is that 26KB/s, as in 26 kilobytes or roughly just over 192 kilobits? I've never had ADSL (I have SDSL which runs on a separate line) so I'm not sure exactly what to tell ya, but I do know that the wiring in your house can have a significant effect on the quality of the line. According to the FAQ entry on slow DSL at broadbandreports.com: If you look at the Full FAQ there, and scroll down to section 8, "Home Wiring", you can find several suggestions.

Look directly into the magic banana. There is nothing unusual here.

The joke just isn't as funny if you have to explain it.

Sure it didn't block it as a potential virus? There was an "I love you" virus awhile back. AOL can be a pain in the Mad!!!, but what they are doing is almost necessary. AOL is the largest target for spammers, so they need to take a very strict stance. It takes some work to keep on their good side (my company sends a couple million opt-in emails a week through my mailserver at work, at least 25% probably go to AOL alone, so I have to keep working with AOL to make sure they stay happy... and we still get blocked by them probably once every 6 months for one reason or another), but it's doable. I don't necessarily agree with all the ways they do it, but I'm glad they are doing something. Getting and staying on AOL's whitelist has even provided me more ammo to force my own company to improve it's emailing practices.

I recommend using whichever domain will ultimately be handling all of the accounts. The one difference between the domain you sign up with on a reseller account, is that it becomes the "parent". The account for that domain is created by TCH, it won't show up as a managable account under the reseller WebHost Manager. All accounts you create from there will be fully managable by you. If you are the one who will be primarily (or soley) handling the reseller account, then use your domain. It doesn't matter if you don't point your domain to it until later. You'll still be able to setup your resold accounts.

550 is used pretty generically. Some sites even use the same 550 error code for returning a SPAM Block response.

550 code is actually used for many different cases, including user does not exist, but it's also used for relaying denied, and other error states (like above).

Doubtful if he's being prompted for a username and password. 99% of the time I have experienced this problem with someone before, it was because the user was not typing in the username and password correctly. Make sure he is typing exactly what you have setup.

Actually, Gorilla just had Google and a affinity for magic banana's . PHP.net had the function.

I'm the safari user, and yes, it's a mac only browser. You can try iCapture to see how it looks on safari (but it looks pretty good). The text on the right does show up white on grey, but it could probably use a little more contrast to make it more easily read, now that it's been mentioned.

No. Krieser is exactly right. Proxying is not enabled. [P] is telling the redirects to use mod_proxy. The rewrite rules you have are correct if proxy was installed. Since allowing proxy through a hosting provider's servers can open up some opportunities of abuse, I'm not sure that's something TCH would allow, but if you want mod_proxy installed, you'll likely have to open up a support ticket and see if they'll approve it.

Because I'm normally lazy... Linky for others: Bluegrass Gardens The site looks nice. Clean and professional. Thumbs Up

It's from the viruses. You can ignore it (you aren't the one sending them). You can setup your mail to delete mail that doesn't go to an account you have created if you want by setting your default mail to forward to :blackhole: in your cpanel settings. Just make sure you have all the valid mail accounts created before you do.

Mirrors are your friend! :hug:

Yay! Thumbs Up Congrats on getting it running.

It sounds like you aren't getting logged in, rather than a permissions error. I would try changing your mysql password for that user to something simple. Change it in mt-db-pass.cgi as well. When you get it all working, try changing it back. If you want to see the permissions, though: When you select Manage MySQL, make sure under the database name it says: Users in database account_dbuser (Privileges: ALL PRIVILEGES) You need a minimum of (Privileges: SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP, ALTER) in order for MT to work properly.

Make sure after adding a user to mysql that you added them to the database (there's two steps... adding a user, and adding them to the database). Also make sure in mt-db-pass.cgi you have placed the correct password in there for the user you created (replacing the word "password"... your db password should be the only thing in that file). In your mt.cfg, make sure you have all of the following lines, replacing "account" with your account login, "database" with the name of the db you created, and "dbuser" with the name of the user you created (which will show up as account_dbuser anyway in the mysql admin interface). >DataSource ./db ObjectDriver DBI::mysql Database account_database DBUser account_dbuser Let me know if none of that helps.

Looks like you can also try using the ini_set function of PHP. This would allow you to set a max per PHP script (so you could have different values for different upload scripts). Or... supposedly it's also possible to set it in .htaccess if you put something like the following in there: ># upload_max_filesize php_value upload_max_filesize 4M

Since you are on a dedicated server, you can SSH into it and modify the file. I'm not aware of a way to modify that file via CPanel/WHM.

Or what you DO get might be very questionable.

Sorry... didn't realize you were talking about hundreds or more. Anyway, if you want to change the php setting, edit your /usr/local/lib/php.ini file and change the following line appropriately: >upload_max_filesize = 2M ; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files Then restart apache and make sure to test with multiple browsers to make sure the larger size is reliable.

This is a question more for the dedicated server customers than TCH staff... How many of you read the forums? Enough to warrant a Dedicated server forum? I figured if there was enough of us, it'd be helpful to have a place to swap tips.

Thanks for the replies. I did pick up Zeldman's book last week. It was highly recommended on Amazon.
