Install Vqadmin

Vqadmin is simply a nice web based interface that will let us manage Vpopmail. Through the interface we can create new domains, new users, net quotas, enable services and much more.

mkdir -p /var/www/mail/cgi-bin
cd /downloads/
tar zxvf vqadmin-2.3.7.tar.gz
cd /downloads/vqadmin-2.3.7

patch < /downloads/patches/vqadmin-2.3.7_lang.patch
cp /downloads/vqadmin-2.3.7/config.sub /downloads/vqadmin-2.3.7/config.sub.bak
cp /downloads/vpopmail-5.4.33/config.sub /downloads/vqadmin-2.3.7

You can find HERE all compilation options.

./configure --enable-cgibindir=/var/www/mail/cgi-bin --enable-isoqlog=y

make && make install-strip

mv /var/www/html/images /var/www/mail/
cp /var/www/mail/cgi-bin/vqadmin/html/en-us /var/www/mail/cgi-bin/vqadmin/html/en-US
chown vpopmail:vchkpw /var/www/mail/cgi-bin/vqadmin/html/en-US
mv /var/www/mail/cgi-bin/vqadmin/.htaccess /var/www/mail/cgi-bin/vqadmin/htaccess.bak

Create the password file to access this interface

htpasswd -bc /var/www/mail/cgi-bin/vqadmin/.htpasswd admin YOUR_WEB_PASSWORD
chown vpopmail:vchkpw /var/www/mail/cgi-bin/vqadmin/.htpasswd

We 'll test this web interface later ...
