I noticed there is always notification to user account mail with account info but on all my servers on different networks notification comes only to server mail.How do i enable that?Do i need to install tweak to whm/cpanel?
I have a dedicated server with SSH ability and I need to backup some of the accounts of the server via rsync to a normal shared account where I only have ftp access..?
I have a dedicated server which I need to migrate all sites to a reseller account on a different host. It comes down to 6 sites that I must not lose any emails.
On the source server, I have full access to it. It's CentOS, WHM, cPanel, etc. On the destination reseller account (downtownhost), I have access to WHM, and individual cPanel. But I can't see any transfer or restore options on the WHM, though on the individual cPanel account, I see a restore option which states:
Quote:
This feature allows you to restore parts of your cPanel by uploading your partial backup zip file(s) that you downloaded from the backup feature.
The following can be restored:
* Home Directory * MySQL Databases * Email forwarders configuration * Email filters configuration
My plan is so far:
1) Generate a full backup for each site on the source server.
2) Create the accounts on the destination reseller account. (Is it possible before I update the IP of the nameserver to point to the new server?)
3) Restore the sites with this wizard I mentioned above in each cPanel.
4) Change the nameserver host IP to the new server.
5) Hold my fingers and bless every living creature for a smooth move.
if I could do this any better, trying not to lose any emails in the process.
I just bought a new dedicated server, set the nameserver to ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com, and have moved all accounts from my reseller to my new dedicated server.
Now, the reseller account still has 10 months before expired. Can I use it for something like ns3.mydomain.com and ns4.mydomain.com?
So, for example for A user, I want to put him on my reseller server, tell him to point his domain to ns3 and ns4, but for B user I want to put him to my dedicated server, and tell him to point his domain to ns1 and ns2. Is this possible?
Or, is there any other thing, I can make my reseller account useful?
I have an account that is going from a shared hosting account to a dedicated with theplanet and I want to transfer it. Concerns I have is that the site is using an SSL. What things do I need to watch out for when transferring. Since I don't have root access I will have to do this transfer with the account function, correct?
This site has a database and SSL, so I thought it would hopefully be easier to use the cpanel account migration tool
I have a dedicated server with whm/cPanel centos 5, however I have an issue with retrieving files between 2 cpanel accounts.
One account is an ssl site [url]and the other cpanel account is [url] Now, the manager since it's on seperate account can't get the files and media stored locally on the other account due to account permissions.
Does anyone know how to hack whm/cpanel to give an account access to another folder in the home directory? I don't really want to give it full root access in case the account gets hacked.
I own a dedicated server and have 3 cpanel for each of my 3 sites in my WHM, I was wondering how much resource would each cpanel account use?
Reason I'm asking is because I have a couple of other sites i'd like to add to this server but I'm not sure if I should simply add them as domain add-on's in one of my current cpanel accounts or if it's ok to create another for each site without using up my server's resources.
My cpanel/whm license just got expired.. now i will buy new after 3/4 days so today i urgent want to add new user can any one tell command lines how to add user & domain & passwords
I downloaded a /home directory backup in Cpanel > Backup. If I restore that backup on another server, would it delete all existing files under that account before it is done restoring?
I want to make sure cause there is an existing website on that account.
I'm trying another cpanel hosting service in addition to one with which I have a main domain and a bunch of addons. I'm used to being able to create the addon accounts regardless of whether I've already changed the ns for the domains being added yet. In the new service I'm trying, I am unable to to do that, but instead get an error message which appears online in various forum posts:
Quote:
Error from park wrapper: Using nameservers with the following IPs: exampleIP 1,example IP 2 Sorry, the domain is already pointed to an IP address that does not appear to use DNS servers associated with this server. Please transfer the domain to this servers nameservers or have your administrator add one of its nameservers to /etc/ips.remotedns and make the proper A entries on that remote nameserver.
With the hosting service where I can always create the accounts any time, I use a secure login that contains my account ip: [url] I will only do secure logins, and not any unsecure http logins. The other hosting service where I am unable to create the addons does not appear to have that available for my normal account url or ip, at least it doesn't work when I've tried, but after searching I found out that you can get a secure login in another way, so I am able to securely log into my account using [url] but this is not the same as my account's IP or the normal shorter url for my regular unsecure login. I would guess that's the significant difference which allows me to create accounts any time in the first account vs. not at all in the second - that I'm using my account's normal ip for the one, but the longer-than-normal secure urls for the other (?), although I don't fully know how that would work.
There is however, one significant difference in the second account which I do not have in the first, and that is that I have SSH access in the second account. So, I am wondering if there is a simple method for using that SSH access to change a setting in my second account in such a way that I can have the same freedom to create addons there first and then attend to ns changes and so forth later when I'm ready? Especially is there a way to do this only once for the whole account, instead of having to do it for each and every addon? Thanks in advance to those who might really know the score on all this stuff and exactly what the best solution or solutions are.
Our domain is hosted with a cPanel based shared hosting company only for website.
We have an Exchange 2003 server that is assigned with two dedicated IP's provided by our ISP with rDNS configured. So all outgoing emails are send using these two ISP lines and all works fine.
Since we are going to change the ISP, and the new ISP is refusing to set rDNS we are going to use our cPanel based shared hosting account to send our mails - so we will be configuring our Exhcnage 2003 to [smarthost] to forward all the emails to the hosting server.
I need to what I have to do in the cPanel account to make this work.
How can I find out who created an account in CPanel? Where in the logs?
I have a new account on my server but I don't know who created it, it's possible one of my resellers lost his password, but how can I find more about it?
