I am new to use the SME and have some question about it.
I have look in both the manual and forum but want more help.
How do I add a database in MySQL? Is there no webmin for this or is this ment to be done.
What is the adress to webmail or do I have to install something first?
I have read about custom program and installs to SME is there a linkpage to some sites?

Do read it over and over again as most of the obvious questions has been answered
How do I add a database in MySQL? Is there no webmin for this or is this ment to be done.
Search for "phpMyAdmin"
What is the adress to webmail or do I have to install something first?
This is in the manual showing you how to enable webmail first then by typing https://<yourserver>/webmail
I have read about custom program and installs to SME is there a linkpage to some sites?
Don't understand what you are after here?

Thanks!
Should print the manual and read it at my work.

https://xxx.xxx.x.xxx/phpmyadmin
I diont find the phpmyadmin there, do I have to install it and how is that made?
I also try to connect to the SQL database but I couldn't connect to it, do I have to enable it first?

You have to if you need it install phpMyAdmin, do a search for phpMyAdmin and you will see someone has done a contrib for the SME Server.
I also try to connect to the SQL database but I couldn't connect to it, do I have to enable it first?
How did you try connect to it? No you don't have to enable mySQL it is already running.

Ok i think that he's new at linux not just sme so i'll post some pointers.
If you need aditional functions (like phpmyadmin) you have to install a contrib for it. You can find them in this forum (use the search function for announce or contrib).
You then have to install it using a ssh client (google putty) and you have to enable ssh (check the manual).
Make a new dir for your rpm's (mkdir temp) and move to that dir (cd /temp).
Then use the wget command to download the contrib (eg: whet ftp://someserver.com/phpmyadmin.rpm). Use rmp's not srpm's.
Then install it using yum contribname.rpm folowed by signal-event commands.
I hope that this is what you were looking for.

Yes thats right I am new to both linux and SME.
I have installed Kubuntu on my computer so I can learn more about it.
I suppose its phpmyadmin multiuser I should install http://forums.contribs.org/index.php?topic=34362.0
My goal is to install CPGnuke to my SME server and let some of the users have access to the webmailsystem. Thanks to all support I am soon there and I have learn alot. Maybe I have to write a n00bguide to remember all stuff and help others with the same goal.

Ok i'll give you an example (note: this is not windows so SME contribs won't work on other linux distros):
You can copy+paste this commands
mkdir temp
cd /temp
wget http://www.vanhees.cc/index.php?name=CmodsDownload&file=index&req=getit&lid=296
yum install smeserver-phpmyadmin-multiuser-2.9.2-1.noarch
rm smeserver-phpmyadmin-multiuser-2.9.2-1.noarch
singal-event post-upgrade
signal-event reboot
And that's it. Now you can access the phpmyadmin pannel.
And a few notes:
- Use tab so you don't have to write the whole file name (eg: sme[TAB]). Linux will fill out the blanks.
- Make a temp dir for contribs so you don't have them all over the place
- Use vmware and test SME on it. Kubuntu is quite different and you should familiarize yourself with SME if you wish to use it.

The link i have posted (my last post) should work.
If not you can download it to your workstation and then transfer it to your user (home) dir and then use ssh and type mc.
Go to your home dir and find the rpm you transfered and move it (F6 i think) to your temp dir (it's easy if you use total commander or if you remember norton).
Then type exit and go to cd /temp and run the commands.
Or the other way is to use this contrib ( http://sme.dungog.net/packages/smeserver/7.0/i386/RPMS.dungog/smeserver-updates-1.2-3.noarch.rpm ) and install it as per my instructions. This will give you an extra option in the server-pannel. You'll be able to download rmp's to your workstation and install it via the new option in the server-manager. No ssh and commands needed.

This happens if you run yum as soon as server starts or if you run the same command twice (in server-manager and in ssh). Wait a few minutes and then try again.

The server still dont find anything...

I get this problem when doing my testing in vmware on my xp machine and the thirdparty firewall wall blocks access and returns that error check you have internet access.

I have access to TCP port 80
Do I need to open some more ports?

You need to check/disable your firewall.

What repos do you have enabled? Go to server-manager panel and make sure that you have centOS and sme repos enabled and sme-testing disabled.
