General Sys Admin FAQ

How do I change NodeWorx's SSL Certificate?

This can only be done from the shell. Do the following:

cd /home/interworx/etc/ssl/
openssl genrsa -out <servername.com>.key 1024
openssl req -new -key <servername.com>.key -out servername.com.csr

Use the self signed cert or purchase one, then:

vi /home/interworx/etc/httpd/httpd-custom.conf

REPLACE FOLLOWING LINES TO POINT TO YOUR DOMAIN:

SSLCertificateFile 
/home/interworx/etc/ssl/servername.com.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile 
/home/interworx/etc/ssl/servername.com.key

Save the file and restart iworx

/etc/init.d/iworx restart

If you already have a certificate just point the two lines to the cert and key

Is it possible to add a second (and possibly more) NodeWorx administrators to the system?

Yes, as of version 3.0, you can add secondary NodeWorx users to the system.

Can I manually edit the InterWorx database?

No. Doing so is highly dangerous unless you know exactly what you are doing, and unless you have backups of these tables, the only way to restore a fouled database is to do a reinstall of the InterWorx software which normally requires a server OS reinstall as well, which can be costly.

 Editing of the InterWorx database will put the system in an inconsistent state and void your support until the software is reinstalled from scratch.

Can I disable the collection and compilation of AWSTATS? I have a slow box. Will there be any repercussions?

Edit ~iworx/iworx.ini

Look for

[stats.awstats]


and change

enabled=”1” to enabled=”0” under that section.

The only negative impact will be that AWSTATS will not be available.
