Best cp that can pick domain (for vps) -
Ivan_Pantovic - 21.06.2011
Hi, I'm looking for a best cp that can just pick my domain up and make it work on my VPS.
I used kloxo before, but it takes like 300 RAM memory, i need something really simple that will work on linux (I can pick any linux - centOS, ubuntu, debian....).
I've got 512 ram and I'm planing to have 200 free for samp and 100 for ventrilo/teamspeak so i guess i need some control panel that can pick my 1 domain and that won't take more than 200 ram for it....
Or does anyone know any way I can do this without any cp (using terminal)?
Thanks.

It's been awhile since I owned a VPS. I had a couple different things installed. One of which was
ISPConfig, it was a wonderful tool!

Real men don't use control panels!

This looks great, but does it take much ram?

Yeah, but it isn't easy to make it pick domains on your own, and i fail every time i try to make it work without cp
.
IDK, but i can't find any tutorial that will work 100%.

You can either run a LAMP stack through terminal, if you're using CentOS or Fedora just type this into the terminal:
# yum -y install httpd php php-mysql php-gd php-mcrypt mysql mysql-server mysql-devel
# service httpd start
# service mysqld start
^ Don't forget to change your MySQL password
Otherwise, check out Webmin -
http://www.webmin.com/ - Webmin uses around 20-30mb of memory if I recall correctly.
For your domain, you can either choose to run a DNS server on your VPS (which I don't recommend, but some people still do it, you can use BIND), or you can use a free DNS service - for example from namecheap.com. Just setup A address pointers to point to your servers IP, and you'll be able to access all of your web files on your VPS in /var/www/html through your domain. You can also set up virtual hosts in Apache's configuration if you want multiple domains / subdomains / etc.
If you don't want to use Apache you can use LightHTTPD / Nginx / any other web server software, however if you're not very experienced with web servers it would make sense to stick with Apache since it is the most documented and popular one on the web.
You'll also want to setup PHP to run separate from Apache somewhere down the line.
Not sure if this information was exactly what you were looking for, but I tried

Thank you very much, I hope I will success with making my domain work without any CP, so i can run samp+vent on my vps without any trouble. Thanks.
