Changing IP Adress of a User

Community Support

Hi everyone,

I used to have 1 ip dedicated to Hestia, but now I got another one and added it through the “Network” page.

Now it seems that my admin account has 2 ip addresses but others has 0.

Is there a possible way to change the ip adress of a specific user?

I use it HestiaCP for mail hosting and I need to dedicate ip’s to some users.

Hi,

You can change the owner of an IP using this command:

v-change-sys-ip-owner TheIP TheNewOwner

On this note, is it possible to assign an external IP, say from a different server, not also within cluster and not internally available?

no, this would not be possible, the ip will be added to the system network config.

Thanks. I had the same understanding, but was not fully sure of it.

First of all, thanks for your reply. When I add the new IP to the server it changes all user’s EXIM IP configration to the new one, and that’s why everyone becomes unable to send mails.

Is there a solution for that? when I add the new Ip and run the command you gave, would it fix the issue?

I’m asking as there’s customers constantly mailing right now. So I cannot try…

Thanks in advance

How are you adding the ip to Hestia? I mean, I want to see all the fields.

Show the output of these commands to see what you currently have.
Note: If you want to obfuscate your actual public IP, use 203.0.113.1, .2, .3, etc., and/or 192.0.2.1, .2, .3, etc.
