Try running bash iRedMail.sh instead. Without the dot between bash and iRedMail.sh. smile

Re: I Really Need Some Help Here/This is my first VPS and I am stuck

Thank You so Much for you help.   I found the problem just my playing around with the commands.   I can't believe but am very greatful.

Here is what I did

I decompressed the files by using tar xvjf iRedMail-0.7.0-beta1

When I got to change directory they had the command as this:   /path/to/iRedMail-x.y.z/
I used cd /iRedMail-0.7.0-beta1   and it worked fine

I was then able to get bash iRedMail.sh to work...

Thank YOu to everyone whom has tried to help me.   I am soooooo happy and I am learning a lot!


Now one more questions.  Do I need to set up a revers DNS for this to wrok properly?

Thanks Again I really appreciate your time

It's not required but it is recommended.

One more little question.  The welcome page seems to be not responding on my vps.  I highlight the yes and click but it does nothing at all.  Just sits there.  Why?

Which ssh client do you use to login to VPS remotely?

SecureCRT doesn't support 'dialog' user interface well, so please try 'putty' instead.

Ok those are resolved.  I finally got it to work through putty.   Now I tried to remove the configiration as directed
[root@server iRedMail-0.7.0-beta1]#  /iRedMail-0.7.0-beta1/config
-bash: /iRedMail-0.7.0-beta1/config: Permission denied
[root@server iRedMail-0.7.0-beta1]#

I also tried to read the tips and get permission denied again.  Now what?  Thank You
