user will be used to make administrative tasks such as creating new databases,
and granting and revoking access to those databases for sites.
C'est parti !
Even though MySQL is now listening on all IP's, it will not allow invalid users
to connect to the databases, without the correct user accounts configured.
If you are concerned about MySQL being accessible in this way, you can also
configure your firewall to only allow incoming connections from certain addresses.

3. Run the install script
=========================
This section deals with the actual installation of Aegir. You can
install aegir in one of two ways: one assumes you have already
downloaded drush and provision, while the other will do that for you.

AlternC will very likely create problems and is not supported. PHP Configuration should look something like this::
-----------------
PHP 5.2
/var/aegir/hostmaster-0.x/
------- Some complex installation profiles or distributions require a PHP memory limit /var/aegir/hostmaster-0.x/profiles/hostmaster/
that is higher than the default. To avoid common errors when installing sites on /var/aegir/hostmaster-0.x/profiles/hostmaster/modules/admin_menu/
Since Aegir strongly depends on Drush, we therefore depend on PHP 5.2 or some distributions, the PHP command line tool should be configured to use 192Mb /var/aegir/hostmaster-0.x/profiles/hostmaster/modules/hosting/
above. You also need to have the commandline version of PHP to run Drush of RAM. /var/aegir/hostmaster-0.x/profiles/hostmaster/modules/install_profile_api/
properly and the MySQL extensions. /var/aegir/hostmaster-0.x/profiles/hostmaster/modules/jquery_ui/
Change the memory_limit directive in /etc/php5/cli/php.ini to read:: /var/aegir/hostmaster-0.x/profiles/hostmaster/modules/modalframe/
Note that Drupal's support for PHP 5.3 is still under development.
/var/aegir/hostmaster-0.x/profiles/hostmaster/themes/eldir/
Currently, using PHP 5.3 will cause (innocuous) warnings on every page memory_limit = 192M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (192MB) /var/aegir/hostmaster-0.x/sites/aegir.example.com/
load. As a result, we suggest using PHP 5.2 for the time-being. /var/aegir/config/server_master/apache.conf
Most modern Drupal sites require around 96M or even 128M of RAM for certain /var/aegir/config/server_master/apache/conf.d/
See http://drupal.org/node/360605 (amongst other issues) for details. operations. This is far more than what is provided by the default PHP configuration. /var/aegir/config/server_master/apache/vhost.d/

--------------- /var/aegir/drush/drush.php
memory_limit = 128M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (128MB) /var/aegir/.drush/drush_make/
You will require a database server, obviously. Aegir currently only supports /var/aegir/.drush/provision/
MySQL. It is preferable to use a dedicated server since Aegir will create
database users and will requires the use of the mysql 'root' user. Variations on this are acceptable (for example, the Drush Debian package works

Other utilities: sudo, rsync, git and unzip

Aegir installs itself via a drush_make file that downloads via git if you want
