bash setup.sh 

• Follow the steps from the wizard, selecting on the default options, it’ll ask if we wish to put in the prerequisite packages, answer yes but they must already all be set up via the command above.
• install the license, by getting the information from the DirectAdmin website control panel, below are the instance info that we’re using;

Please enter your Client ID: 55933
Please enter your License ID: 167427
Please enter your hostname (server.domain.com)

It must be an active Domain Name

Do not use a domain you plan on using for the hostname:
(don’t use domain.com. Use subdomain server.domain.com instead.)

Do not enter http:// or www

Enter your hostname (FQDN): directpanel.hostlelo.in  (Enter yours, not this one)

Example:
Please enter your Client ID: 55933
Please enter your License ID: 167427
Please enter your hostname (server.domain.com)

Is this correct? (y,n) : y

Is eth0 your network adapter with the license IP (192.144.194.255)? (y,n) : y

Your external IP: 192.144.194.255

Is 192.144.194.255 the IP in your license? (y,n) : y
DirectAdmin will now be installed on Enterprise 7.2
Is this correct? (must match license) (y,n) : y

From this factor you may be asked an in addition series of questions, you could generally select yes to all of these questions for a “base” set up with the default versions that DirectAdmin recommended.

8. When the installation completes you will see the following output and will be able to login to the control panel.

http:// 192.144.194.255:2222 (Use your own Server IP, not this one) and enter your Admin username and password when prompted.
