The Barracuda install script could not be more simple. Still, for a non-sysadmin-type person like me some confusion has come up.

When I run the install script it checks to make sure I have a fully qualified domain name on my server, yet it does not use that domain for where the Aegir control panel is located. As the script runs, it reports (I've changed the domain name to example.com):

* Your e-mail address appears to be me@example.com - is that correct?
* Your server hostname is subdomain.example.com.
* Your Aegir control panel is/will be available at https://mylinode.members.linode.com.

Shouldn't the control panel be located under my domain? I tried editing the install script to provide for a location of the control panel, at these lines:

282 _MY_OWNIP=""
283 _MY_HOSTN=""
284 _MY_FRONT=""

Still, the same result. Should I not worry about this and just use what's given?

***EDIT*** I believe the problem I'm having does not have anything to do with Barracuda.

I'm not sure I understand the problem. If you are following the script configuration how-to, then it should just work. You should never rely on your host/provider reverse DNS names, as you don't control it - and it is explained in the config section in the script.
