Remote webserver configuration
Any number of remote web servers may be configured. They need an aegir user and webserver configuration, with the same user name and directory paths. SSH public/private keys should be set up so hostmaster's Aegir user can access remote web Aegir users with no passwords. The above Apache configuration needs to be performed too.
They will also need a login shell, which can be modified using the chsh command.
Shell commands as root::
adduser --system --group --home /var/aegir aegir
adduser aegir www-data #make aegir a user of group www-data
chsh -s /bin/sh aegir
apt-get install rsync apache2 php5 php5-cli php5-mysql
mkdir /var/aegir/.ssh
cat > /var/aegir/.ssh/authorized_keys <<EOF

Defaults:aegir !requiretty
