Title: changing webmail's address
Post by: KDB9000 on September 27, 2006, 08:56:25 PM

I would like to change the webmail address to something like webmail.domain.com or something. Is there anyways I can do this? I figure it is in the httpd.conf file but I am not sure how to set this up. Can someone point me in the right direction?

[caveat]
I have no idea if this is a good way to do this, but I tried it and it worked.  I was unable to figure out how to use a RewriteRule to send http://webmail... to https://webmail...

I suspect that you could achieve the same thing with a single "RewriteRule" directive.
[/caveat]

mkdir -p /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

cd /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

pico -w 90Webmail

Copy and paste the contents below into "90Webmail" and save.  Be sure to change "yourdomain.com" to match your configuration in the  "ServerName" directive!

Code: [Select]

<VirtualHost 0.0.0.0:443>

    ServerName webmail.yourdomain.com
    ServerAlias

    DocumentRoot         /home/httpd/html/horde/imp
    ScriptAlias /cgi-bin /home/e-smith/files/ibays/egroupware/cgi-bin
    Alias       /files   /home/e-smith/files/ibays/egroupware/files

    # SSL Directives
    SSLEngine on

    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^(TRACE|TRACK)
    RewriteRule .* - [F]


    Alias       /webmail   /home/httpd/html/horde/imp
    Alias       /horde   /home/httpd/html/horde

    # alias for Apache icons
    Alias /icons/ /var/www/icons/

    # Alias for server resources
    Alias /server-resources/ /home/e-smith/files/server-resources/

</VirtualHost>


expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

/etc/init.d/httpd-e-smith restart

You should now be able to access webmail at https://webmail.yourcompany.com
