Hi,
Is there anybody who managed to install Sentora on Azure CentOS Linux release 7.1?
I am new with Linux and also with Sentora.
I have got a few questions:
1) Sentora is asking for "The public IP of the server" when installing. Azure gives a public address called VIP which is virtual. That means that if the server is switched off for a certain time the IP will be released and when the server is on again there will be a new VIP assigned. They recommend to use CNAME rather for this purpose so if anything is pointing to the server it should still work. How this could be used when installing Sentora? Can I use CNAME instead of IP address?
..the Azure CentOS provided me with DNS Name (something.cloudapp.net), which I used as a subdomain and I used VIP at the moment for requested IP address. I can now access Sentora after successful installation through provided DNS Name something.cloudapp.net. I can easily reinstall it if I should rather provide CNAME through installation?
2) I couldn't find any information regarding this situation. I have got a domain registered with GoDaddy and would like to host website on the server above. I created in GoDaddy new record for mywebsite.com:
dns entry - cms
type - CNAME
destination - something.cloudapp.net
Is this just going to work in Sentora when I add my new domain cms.mywebsite.com in Sentora Domain Management -> Domains or I still need to create DNS in the Sentora DNS Manager? This is a bit confusing..I think in zPanel it would be just working pointing the domain to the zPanel?
My apology if I missed something and my questions are not clear.
Thank you for your help.
P.S. I think I post it in the wrong thread, please move it to the right location.
