We're managing a CMS script which we offer as a hosted solution / leased script. This means we have several accounts on our server, one pr. client/script user. They all run the same script software and occasionally we have to upgrade the script on these sites. Until now this is being done manually.
Connect with FTP -> upload new files -> Done.
This is very easy work but takes annoyingly much time due to FTP needing to set up connections, switching accounts, etc.. and if you have 100s or 1000s of accounts this becomes...yes...you know..
The question is now, how can this be done easier? I was hoping that it would be possible to do this automated somehow (we have root access to our server).
I am not exactly sure where to post this so I figured I would try here.
I have quite a few customers I host on a dedicated server. I would like to offer them the ability to backup any kind of data they want to on the server as well.
I am looking for a simple program that i could distribute to my customers and all they have to do is:
Install the application Type in UN/PW I provide them Select the directories they would like automatically uploaded Select the frequency of the automatic upload
Does anyone know of good software I can use that is that simple to use?
I have Linux and Windows server with Plesk 8.6 as the control panel and now the issue is that there is no option to auto suspend the accounts which are using over the quota(Diskspace or Traffic). All I have to manually check the accounts and to suspend, which I think not good. Is there any option to get the accounts auto suspended once they reached the limits. In the Notifications area, sending mails to clients regarding the quota, but no option to suspend the accounts.
I have frequently read that you should upload all files to and create folders in the public html. But recently an IT manager told me this sacrifices security completely. So in respect of setting up a new site,
Folder name (at server) public html Q1 You place the index.htm file here, correct? public ftp Q2 What do you place in this? w3 Q3 do you place other folders at w3.sitename here? user created Q4 are folders for the subdomain folders created here (and not in the public html folder) - for security reasons? Q5 For add-on domains e.g. w3.sitename/add-on/abc.htm where is
it best to place the folder for the contents e.g. abc.htm?
I've just got my webhosting setup at LeaseWeb. But the problem is, for a newbie like me, I get confused by all these directories; where do I upload my files (index.html for example)
We are using EC2, this EC2 is already linked with S3 for uploading the back of database.
We are using PHP script for this and its working fine. Now our developers want to upload media files directly from Client PC to the S3. This should be without disturbing current EC2 . We have implemented the uploading functionality through Flash. It will be great if you could tell us a way.
I have a apache server, and i'd love to find a way to be able to upload files to my server, allowing me to view the files on my server or in a folder, allowing me to download these files, edit them and re-upload them, replacing them such as files like word documents. I want it to be web-based as i'll be using it for school work, so i can upload them.
When i try to upload a image files to the linux based shared hosting server application with java and .Jsp files
(using apache common file upload) the following exception is getting...! java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.io.FilePermission /var/chroot/home/content/h/e/r/heritageameric/html/heritageshopping/abc.txt write)
Hosting people suggesting me that i need .htaccess file to solve and get write permission..!
But iam completely new to this .htaccess file concept..!
Did anyone ever had an issue, when you click fetch accounts list and it displays 0 packages and 0 accounts? Even if there are hundreds of accounts in server.
I have a VPS hosting and have two IPs. Can I create multiple accounts using a shared IP in WHM?
I created but the page always showed failed
"Account Creation Status: failed (Your system has run out of avaiable ip addresses, or you do not have permission to use any more ip addresses. (Unable to find an ip address.) )"
I've just put all my own domains on their own server, away from my clients' domains.
I don't really want to go through 60 Cpanel accounts creating an email address for myself in each.
Is there a way to create a single pop account in each account? I seem to recall there's a way to change the default email address to fail: or blackhole: server-wide so I guess there'll be a way to create a mail account.
I have to mass change the ownership of accounts and I find "Change Owner of Multiple Accounts" tedious.
I found a bash script but I'm not sure if this works
Quote:
#!/bin/bash IFS="$"
cd /var/cpanel/users
if [ $# = 2 ]; then replace "OWNER=${1}" "OWNER=${2}" -- /var/cpanel/users/* else echo "USAGE: ./${0} <old reseller login> <new reseller login>" fi
If that works, how can I tweak it so that the change in ownership of accounts will be based in the hosting package and not in the old reseller account?
I am the IT Director for a Furniture Manufacturing Company. I would like to establish relationships with Web Hosting Professionals that can provide me with multiple hosting accounts. Each must be on a different subnet. They do not require dedicated IP's. These accounts will be used to back link to a master domain. I can assure you that there will be no spamming or other unscrupulous activity on these accounts. Our company has been in business since 1862. I welcome this community to give me feedback thoughts ideas etc..
I just tried westhost. Very nice folks, good reviews, worth a shot. I signed up for a regular hosting account that allows multiple domains. That didn't work for email. An email user has access to email under that users name for all domains attached to the account. so you can't have info@abc.com, info@def.com, etc. One info@ per account. I did find a hack for it, but it wouldn't work with web mail.
So now I need to find a host that separates mail by domain WITH webmail.
This is getting so tiresome. I have a VPS with "the planet", but so many things just don't work out of the box. I've been fighting with them about PHP not sending mail for months. DNS problems everytime I setup a new domain. There has to be an easier way!
15 domains, everything needs to work. I don't want to manage anything. No resellers. The company I host with will own the data center.
I need a webhost (Linux preferably) with some fairly specific FTP account requirements.
I am going to need to be able to create an FTP account that multiple users can log on at once and they can upload files but NOT overwrite files of the same name. Can this be done? Anyone know of a host with these options?
This is for a program I'm working on where users make images and they upload them to the web. I don't want to use HTTP uploading because I don't know how to script it when FTP is easier for me. I wouldn't want people to learn the filenames of images and upload images with the exact same name to delete people's files.
