Standard domain name and port pattern

This is an attempt to propose an optimal standard subdomain name pattern for WikiSuite users.

Goals:

Virtualmin admin panel

https://server.example.org:10000 : Virtualmin admin panel

  • To do: Test handling of visiting IP address or server.example.org
    • Ideally, nothing is shown unless we configure it explicitly.


Why not use example.org:10000? This permits to set up a new Virtualmin server without affecting an existing website (ex.: if you already have a running site, and you want to set all this up in parallel, and migrate the website once everything is tested)

In fact, since port 10000 can sometimes be blocked, we'd want management.server.example.org as an alternative to server.example.org:10000

But server.* is not a good pattern because if we had:

  • server.example.org
  • server.example.com
  • server.wikisuite.org
  • server.wikisuite.net

and we logged into all servers in SSH, we would see root@server for each...

Websites

Say we host example.org
We will pick example as a username.

What domain name where files are stored
Tiki Manager manager.example.org /home/example/tiki-manager/tiki-manager.php and /home/example/public_html/ Top-level Virtual Server (Others are Sub-Servers)
main website example.org /home/example/domains/example.org/public_html/
test upgrade next.example.org /home/example/domains/next.example.org/public_html/ data from prod, code from trunk
staging staging.example.org /home/example/domains/staging.example.org/public_html/ data from prod, code from tip of branch
Backup of a week ago oneweekago.example.org /home/example/domains/oneweekago.example.org/public_html/ exact copy from 7 days ago
Ad hoc copy 20170431-11h55.example.org /home/example/domains/20170431-11h55.example.org/public_html/ On demand exact copy

Email

todo :mail / MX: example.org

CalDAV and CardDAV

http://sabre.io/dav/service-discovery/

Openfire / XMPP


conference.example.org

Instead of https://example.org:7443/ofmeet/, we want https://ofmeet.example.org/ofmeet/ or even better: https://ofmeet.example.org/
