Description

Vertigo is a system for managing one or more servers.

It allows administrators to manage virtual hosts on their servers without having to manually edit configuration files.

Moreover it allows users of these virtual hosts to manage their email adresses and aliases, as well as giving them a way to access their backups.

All of this is done using a series of web interfaces.

Vertigo itself consists of a python library for changing the configuration of domains (virtual hosts), a series of Vertigo/WebApplications web applications and a range of Vertigo/Services that does the actual manipulation of configuration files.

Documentation

• Vertigo/Services Provides a page with documentation for each of the services provided by Vertigo.

Joining the effort

I used to host a maillinglist on dev.infonet.dk, but i no longer do that. If enough people ask me to i will create a new one.

Vertigo is developed using Bazaar and as such, each developer has their own source-code repository:

• http://halfdans.net/bzr/vertigo/ is controlled by Rasmus Toftdahl Olesen, and the only source repository so far.

There are several branches below that directory, but development is usually done on trunk, this is also the branch we release from.

Download

If you wish to use vertigo, it is by far easiest if you are using [http://www.debian.org Debian GNU/Linux], support for other distributions will probably happen, but not in the near future.

If using debian you should add:

deb http://halfdans.net/debian <distribution> .

To your /etc/apt/sources.list, our Vertigo/ReleasePolicy release policy is described here.
