A brilliant software engineer, Founder of LxLabs.com, creator of HyperVM – optimized virtualization technology which runs on both Xen and OpenVZ, “Host In a Box” solution LxAdmin/Kloxo for Web hosting companies, server owners, resellers – K.T Ligesh commits suicide yesterday (8th June,2009) in his residence located in H.S.R Layout, Bangalore.

Yesterday night I was discussing with few of my colleagues about the recent vulnerability report logged against Kolxo solution and the fixes released to patch it. Sadly I get to read this news in  papers on returning home.  I recall interacting with this genius engineer prior to his product  launch and reporting few initial glitches that I had noticed. His products have made a very good name in industry in a short span of time. A very hardworking talent, free and opensource enthusiast. He tried his best to provide an optimized web hosting tool to hosting industry. Its a great loss to all of us.

He puts a question mark in-front of us and LxAdmin’s future is unknown. There are more questions to be answered while his soul rests in peace.

1. INTRODUCTION

1a. Introduction

LXadmin “Host in a box” is the only control panel that makes use of Lighttpd and DJBDNS which only uses 8 MB of RAM with a freshly installed system. The control panel itself uses 1 MB of RAM when idle. LXadmin “Host in a box” is part of LXadmin, the leading light-weight control panel in the industry. The only difference between the two is the use of different daemons.

This lightweight control panel has all of the features included in all leading control panels such as mail, spam filter, PHP, CGI, Perl, SUexec, FTP, MySQL and much much more. You will get to find out more in this document as you read.

2. THE BASICS

2a. Accessing the control panel

There are several ways to access LXadmin: http://yourdomain:7778 – You can access the control panel through any hosted domain by putting :7778 at the end of the domain. https://yourdomain:7777 - You can access the control panel securly using SSL through any hosted domain by putting :7777 at the end of the domain. http://192.168.0.1:7778 or https://192.168.0.1:7777 - You can access the control panel through any IP address allocated to the server.  This is useful when your domain transfer has not yet propagated. A window (top right image) will appear.  Enter your username and password and you should have successfully logged in.

2b. Changing your password

To change your password, click client home and then on the top right corner, you will see the password tab. Click on it and fill in your existing password and the new password twice and click Update.

2c. Adding a DNS Template

You have to add a DNS template initially. DNS template is the DNS configuration which will be copied to your domain’s DNS when a new domain is created. For adding a DNS template, you have to basically specify the primary and secondary nameservers for the domains you are planning to create on this server. For instance: ns1.lxlabs.com and ns2.lxlabs.com . The name is simply an identifier which will be used later when creating the domain.

For creating a new DNS template,

go to “Client Home” page and under “Domains“, click the “DNS Templates” icon

In the DNS Templates page, you can see the list of existing DNS templates. If you do not have any existing DNS template, create a new DNS template by clicking the “Add DNS Template” tab on the top.

In the next page, enter the DNS information for the template:

Click the “Add” button and the new DNS template is created. You can see the new DNS template in the list of DNS Templates

Click on the new DNS Template name to edit DNS records like NS, A, CNAME, MX and TXT

2d. Add a Reseller

Before you proceed to add a new Reseller, you have to add a new plan for the new client/reseller
To add a new plan,

To add a new plan, click “Client Plans” icon

In the next page, click the “Add Client Plan” tab.

Here you can enter the plan details like:

Once you have created the plan, go back to the “Client Home” page and click the “Clients” button link

This page will list your existing customers and resellers. If you do not have any, click on either the “Add Reseller” tab that you see on the top.

In the “Add Reseller” page, enter a name for your Reseller, password and email address.
If you enable the “Send Welcome Message” check box, an email with the account details will be sent automatically to the Reseller’s email address.
