Roundcube webmail tries to send mail from @127.0.0.1

This issue happens when you login to your roundcube webmail with your email ID only and not writing full email address with domain name, so it writes your identity in email from box as abc@127.0.0.1
If you log out and again login in with full user name including domain name, i.e abc@xyz.com then you can see your send email from is correct to you full email address and not abc@127.0.0.1.
So either you can always login to the webmail with full email address or do one change in the roundcube configuration to add your email domain to the login id automatically.
Go to the configuration folder of roundcube.
I am using iRedmail with default installations on Ubuntu, so my default path is located at /opt/www/roundcube/configs/defaults.inc.php
open this configuration file in text editor and uncomment the follwoing
$config[‘username_domain’] = ”;
after uncommenting add your email domain in the inverted commas, like below
$config[‘username_domain’] = ‘xyz.com’;
after making changes, restart the apache service
$sudo service apache2 restart (this is ubuntu command)
Now you should see your full email address in from list on roundcube webmail. Leave comment if it worked for you

How to import Putty Saved Connections to mRemoteNG

Just started using mRemoteNG and its being very cool to connect to different remote connection with different protocols e.g Window Remote Desktop, VNC to Linux, SSH, HTTP connection etc. from a single application. As new user I configured some remote desktop connection which was quite easy to figure out. But when I wanted to add SSH connections, it came in my mind to import all of the saved connections in the putty. But I couldn't figure it out how can it be done, though it was quite easy and here are the steps. Open your mRemoteNG Create a folder if you want segregation of multiple networks Create a new connection Enter the IP address of remote server under connection in Config pane Under the config pane, select protocol " SSH version 2 ".  Once you select protocol to SSH version 2 you are given option to import putty sessions, as shown in the snap below. In the above snap, I have imported CSR-AWS session from my saved sessions in Putty.

Authoritative DNS Servers Delegation and Internal DNS Explained

DNS (Domain Name System) plays a critical role in how users and systems find resources on the internet or within internal networks. Whether it's managing an internal domain in an enterprise or delegating parts of a domain for traffic distribution, DNS setups vary widely depending on needs. In this blog post, we’ll break down the different types of DNS setups, including authoritative DNS servers, DNS delegation, and how internal DNS functions within organizations. 1. Authoritative DNS Server An Authoritative DNS server is the final source of truth for a specific domain. When someone queries a domain (e.g., example.com ), the authoritative DNS server for that domain holds the DNS records (A records, CNAME, MX, etc.) and responds with the corresponding IP address. Key Points: Who can host it? Authoritative DNS servers are often hosted by domain registrars (e.g., GoDaddy, Namecheap) or cloud DNS providers (e.g., AWS Route 53, Cloudflare). However, organizations can also host their ...

BGP MED: Managing Inbound Traffic with Multi-Exit Discriminator

The Multi-Exit Discriminator (MED) is used in BGP to control inbound traffic into your AS. It tells a neighboring AS which entry point into your network it should prefer when there are multiple links between your AS and the neighboring AS. The lower the MED value , the more preferred the path. MED is only honored between the same neighboring AS . Example Scenario : You are connected to ISP1 via two routers, CE1 and CE2 , and want to control which router ISP1 uses to send traffic into your AS. Network Topology : CE1 (connected to ISP1): 10.0.1.1/30 CE2 (connected to ISP1): 10.0.2.1/30 iBGP Router (Internal) connected to both CE1 (10.0.1.2/30) and CE2 (10.0.2.2/30). Configuration on CE1 (Lower MED, More Preferred) : Create a route map to set the MED to 50 for CE1: route-map SET_MED permit 10 set metric 50 Apply this route map to the neighbor in the BGP configuration for CE1: router bgp 65001 neighbor 10.0.1.1 remote-as 65000 neighbor 10.0.1.1 route-map SET_MED out Configuratio...
