Help! (Home for newbies)

Hello guys sorry my delay but i decided to register new domain name also for this installation and i made the configurations on my hostname set now as a.ns.mydomain.com. To be able to proceed with the installation of virtualmin using putty. I want to add that i also made the configurations for the nameservers, as i read a lot about fully qualified domain name (or FQDN).

All the domains will point now to: a.ns.mydomain.com and b.ns.mydomain.com with my hosting provider IPs.

Right now, i made the download of virtualmin, i have choosen the gpl version, i want to try this one first and then maybe upgrade or later make a new installation of the Pro version.

My nameserver is now working in the vps and it seems that my domains are now pointing at him, i have created inside 4 accounts, logged in and out from multiple users, all seems fine, made a few tests in the users accounts, such as try the browsers, place testing homepages, now i am going to try some ftp settings and also email accounts.

I really enjoy Putty now, thanks to you guys, Locutus and andreycheck, since day one of this post you guys were great and helped me a lot, i learn now how to make the installation, and i am a complete newbie and till now all my tests seems ok, it is in fact a better and cheaper solution for any user, and i really like the enviroment, simple and fast.

With this, i learned a new coding experience (thanks) and i made my vps running! (thanks again)!

I cant wait now too explore more things on it.
