How do I make squirrelmail the default web page
 

Think the title says it all

Im running centos4

which runs apache2

I dont want a default error page when I browse to my site. I want the squirrelmail login. And the doco's seem like gobbldy gook to me?

I also think this might be an issue?

Any help appreciated, I don't want to spend too much time on what I guess is an easy thing to do.
Cheers!

Ok I asked too soon - I worked it out

All i needed to do was edit /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

And change line
DirectoryIndex index.html index.html.var

to

DirectoryIndex /webmail

Its works!

Good job!

Thanks for posting your solution -- it's the way LQ is supposed to work.

I'm not sure how that is working but DirectoryIndex is used to define what it should look for to display the default index file, if it's html, php, shtml, etc. What you should be editing for your domain if you want squirrelmail to be the default page is to change your DocumentRoot path to your squirrelmail directory.
