Introduction

ISPConfig is a widely used open-source hosting control panel for Linux, under the BSD license, that allows the management of websites, email addresses, MySQL and MariaDB databases, FTP accounts, and DNS records. Its administration is carried out through a web-based interface with 4 login levels: administrator, reseller, client, and email user, each with a different set of permissions

Step 1: Update the system

Before installing any new software on Ubuntu, remember that you should always update the system to have the latest versions of the software packages.

The system update process and the ISPConfig installation must be performed with the root user. To do this, you must execute the commands:

sudo -s

apt update && apt upgrade -y
