I have plesk 7.1 for linux and I would like to hire someone to install it for me on my computer server which I have physical access to. Mandrake 10.

please contact me via aim or yahoo thanks

I dont think plesk is supported on mandrake.

It's not. You have to use FreeBSD or Redhat. If you'd like, I can assist you in the installation in one of these OS for this Plesk application. Please PM or e-mail me at jdelsman@voxxit.com if you would like assistance.

Cheers,
Josh

7.5 support is released early this year, 7.1 series is supported on mandrake 10.

Position taken anyway

I first like to thank everyone for helping out by posting replies and messaging me.

I especially like to thank Ceriplex who was the first to respond by IM via AIM. He was the first and by far the best for my budget. He did a lot of of work with mandrake, however mandrake was being a pain in the ***. According to plesk website they do support mandrake 10 for 7.1 and have an auto installer. However the dependancies were a pain in the *** to find and install.

Another person from this forum by screen name "AnnihiLizard" on AIM, was the one who was the key in recommending me using a different OS. CentOS which is a open source of Red Hat Linux Enterprise. I switched to CentOS 3. Once installed it was easy and a breeze for Ceriplex to install plesk via SSH control.

The mass majority of linux users tell me CentOS based of RHLE was better to use anyhow for as a server than Mandrake 10.

I want to thank Ceriplex for being very honest and very patient and great on my budget. I also like to thank Annihilizard for mentioning CentOS which I never heard of.

I am currently using windows 2000 server w/ IIS 5.0 as my primary webserver among other servers I run, I am running CentOS on the same computer box using VMware which allows me to run dual operating systems at the same time on different ports. I am very pleased with this as I can provide webhosting on two different operating systems.

My future plans is to use a switch so I can forward multiple WAN IPs, each OS will have its own dedicated static ip so i can easily IP forward from a domain name.

Thanks guys!
