BlueOnyx is a Linux distribution (based on CentOS v5.5) which aims at delivering a turnkey server appliance for webhosting. It comes with a web based GUI interface which allows you (and your email, FTP and webhosting clients!) to manage most aspects of the server, its sites and accounts through a browser based interface. It is open source software, released under a Sun modified BSD license.

BlueOnyx is a modernized fork of BlueQuartz and has been developed by Solarspeed.net and NuOnce Networks, Inc. and A lot of improvements and enhancements (compared to a regular BlueQuartz) went into BlueOnyx. Including support for Java Servlet Pages, built in web based email, phpMyAdmin for you and your webhosting clients and provisions to automatically create MySQL databases and users for each virtual site.

Our template is already on all our VPS Servers ready to deploy in a matter of minutes!

. Add Passive Port range 30000-350000 to your Pureftp or Proftp configuration file
(i) Pureftpd
open /etc/pure-ftpd.conf, and this line
PassivePortRange    30000 35000
(ii) ProFTP
Open /etc/proftpd.conf, and add this line
PassivePorts    30000 35000

Now there are many other things you can do, root kit hunters and log rotators and more. However depending on your needs this alone will get you off to a good start.

Add the following lines to the lighttpd.conf file.

server.max-keep-alive-requests = 4
server.max-keep-alive-idle = 4
server.event-handler = “linux-sysepoll”
server.network-backend = “linux-sendfile”
server.max-fds = 8192
server.stat-cache-engine = “simple”

As you can see from the following image, things are moving along nicely.

The current load on the server is 0.0 and the ram used it 66MB’s for live stats check out this link.  System Usage.
