Title: How can I change the primary domain name?
Post by: woofus on February 28, 2005, 06:31:14 PM

I have OsCommerce installed in an ibay and the primary domain name of the server is no longer valid and I am getting some mail servers that will not allow mail from my server <550 perm fail>. How can I change the primary domain name?

Boot SME and go to the setup page. Select Option 2 "Configure this Server". At the appropiate screen, change the primary domain name, let it reboot then make any other changes necessary from the GUI Configuration Manager.

Ok, sounds good. Cant beleive I didnt think of that.
One question, can I ssh in as admin, the setup comes up automatically. This is a remote machine.

That is correct. Have a look at /etc/passwd and you will understand:

[root@linuxserver root]# grep admin /etc/passwd
admin:x:101:101:e-smith administrator:/home/e-smith:/sbin/e-smith/console

Simply login as user root (same password as user admin) and the command line is yours.
