Perfect server on Ubuntu 18.04 Nginx, MySQL, PHP, Postfix, BIND, Dovecot, Pure-FTPD z panelem ISPConfig 3.1

Posted on by

In today's tutorial I will describe the process of preparing a fully functioning web server along with free panel for managing the ISPConfig.
Guidance has been prepared under the latest version of Ubuntu 18.04

For starters make changes in the system hostname. This step was describing in this guide.

We log on as root command:

1
sudo -s

I enter the password. Then install our favorite text file editor, for example, nano:

1
apt-get install nano

The next step is to set repositories in /etc/apt/sources.list

we command them:

1
nano /etc/apt/sources.list

The file should look like this:

Then we make an update repositories and system updates:

1
2
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

To be sure proper operation of the system and save all the changes make the system reboot command:

reboot

After the restart, re-log in to the root account on the system and make changes in the system shell.
We can make this command:

1
dpkg-reconfigure dash

The Communication select the option that is not well:

1
Use dash as the default system shell (/bin/sh)? <-- No

Turn off AppArmor

AppArmor is a security extension (Similar to SELinux), which should provide enhanced security. check, is installed, and, if necessary, remove it. I do not think we need it to set up a secure system and usually causes more problems than benefits.

Deactivation will be done by issuing the command:

1
2
3
service apparmor stop
update-rc.d -f apparmor remove
apt-get remove apparmor apparmor-utils

We synchronize the time on a server with the NTP server

1
apt-get -y install ntp ntpdate

Install Postfix, Dovecot, MariaDB, phpMyAdmin, rkhunter, Binutils

Minor point here to install the necessary posfixa uninstall sendmail. We can make this command:

1
service sendmail stop; update-rc.d -f sendmail remove

Then install all packages:

1
apt-get -y install postfix postfix-mysql postfix-doc mariadb-client mariadb-server openssl getmail4 rkhunter binutils dovecot-imapd dovecot-pop3d dovecot-mysql dovecot-sieve dovecot-lmtpd sudo

The installer will ask you for an 2 options you select as below:

1
2
General type of mail configuration: <-- Internet Site
System mail name: <-- nasz_hostname_serwera.pl

Run TLS / SSL postfix

edit file:

1
nano /etc/postfix/master.cf

And since we comment section smtpd_client_restrictions=permit_sasl_authenticated,reject

The whole should look like this:

[...]

After making changes to make to restart posfixa

1
service postfix restart

We want to, aby MariaDB / MySQL is not only on localhost. Therefore we edit the file /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-server.cnf (for MariaDB or /etc/mysql/my.cnf (for MySQL) and comment out the line bind-address = 127.0.0.1:

1
nano /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-server.cnf

We add # przy bind-address

1
2
3
4
5
[...]
# Instead of skip-networking the default is now to listen only on
# localhost which is more compatible and is not less secure.
#bind-address           = 127.0.0.1
[...]

Set the root password mysql server and pass the basic configuration with the command:

1
mysql_secure_installation

We answer questions like:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
Enter current password for root (enter for none): <-- klikamy enter bo nie mamy ustawionego hasła
Set root password? [Y/n] <-- y
New password: <-- Wprowadź tutaj nowe hasło roota
Re-enter new password: <-- Powtórz hasło
Remove anonymous users? [Y/n] <-- y
Disallow root login remotely? [Y/n] <-- y
Reload privilege tables now? [Y/n] <-- y

We set the password authentication method for native, so that we can later PHPMyAdmin to connect as the root user:

echo “update mysql.user set plugin = ‘mysql_native_password’ where user=’root’;” | mysql -u root

File Modification /etc/mysql/debian.cnf and set the root password

1
nano /etc/mysql/debian.cnf

Below the modified file looks like this:

[mysql_upgrade]
host = localhost
user = root
password = HASLO ROOT
socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
basedir = /usr

Edit your /etc/mysql/my.cnf and monitoring local MySQL Hashing

1
nano /etc/mysql/my.cnf

The file should look like this:

[...]
# Instead of skip-networking the default is now to listen only on

#bind-address           = 127.0.0.1

We make a server restart mysql command:

1
service mysql restart

Installation Amavisd-new, SpamAssassin, And ClamAV

IMPORTANT:
Localhost Key, Csr and a self-signed Cert have been saved to /etc/metronome/certs
In order to work with all clients, the server must have a trusted certificate, so use the Csr
to get a trusted certificate from your CA or replace Key and Cert with already signed files for
your domain. Clients like Pidgin dont allow to use untrusted self-signed certificates.

Installation completed.
 
The installer automatically configures all underlying services, so there is no manual configuration needed.
 
Afterwards you can access ISPConfig 3 under http(s)://server1.example.com:8080/ or http(s)://192.168.1.100:8080/ ( http or https depends on what you chose during installation). Log in with the username admin and the password admin (you should change the default password after your first login):

Finished script has been installed and is available at https://ipserwera:8080

The default data to the panel admin login password is admin

In this way we have a fully operational and configured web server once the mail server databases and ftp.
