[TUT]How to setup MTA 1.3 Server on Debian 6.0 Fresh Install

[elmakurdu11]

Hey guys,

I see that users are having problem with Debian 6.0. So I made a script that installs MTA server automatically. You just need:

- A VPS or Dedicated Server

- Putty

- Internet connection

- To be patient.

IF YOU KNOW HOW TO CONNECT SERVER VIA PUTTY PASS THIS STEP!!!

FIRST STEP

First of all, open your vps via ssh, I use Putty for this.

Link for putty: http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/latest/x86/putty.exe

When you downloaded this, open it and

Picture A

When you click open, a screen appears and it writes:

"login as:"

you must login as "root" then its gonna ask you a password, you can find this in your e-mail.

SECOND STEP

when you login, type

"wget http://205.196.120.169/bz1cx4wg6wqg/9p6 ... -server.sh" without quotes

it is gonna download a file called Mta-server.sh

when its finished, type

"chmod +x Mta-server.sh" without quotes

then type:

"./Mta-server.sh" without quotes

and now its gonna ask you a few things like this:

Picture B

you will answer this with this word: "y" without quotes

or when you meet this:

Picture C

you will press right arrow to select OK then press enter for twice

after that, you are gonna meet a situation like in Picture B then you must answer that with "y" again

ANDDD... You're ready, server must be opened already.

"wget http://205.196.120.169/bz1cx4wg6wqg/9p6 ... -server.sh" without quotes

Since that won't work (it will download a website):

wget http://88.198.11.8/mta-download/autoinstall.sh

Also:

mtaserver.conf is wrong.

acl.xml is wrong.

This way the server shouldn't be run instantly, unless you don't want to be admin on your own server. You need to create those first (thats why I removed the ./mta-server from the script).

Its the script he made and my own server, so consider it trustworthy (if you don't want to, your own fault).

I'll add a script which tries to download the newest nightly automatically.

Outdated Link ! :-/ And MTA Binary package about config is down too.

Sorry I stopped hosting them files.

Lets see if I got the autoinstall somewhere.
