Creating FTP Accounts For New Web Site Users

May 21, 2007

I have a web site, where users sign up and edit there account settings using a web based form application.

These users will be uploading large files to my server, and as of right now they are uploading the files using a file upload form. The problem is it takes a really long time to upload them.

So my first question is will using ftp be significantly faster than using the web form http upload?

Assuming its faster to use ftp:

The big files that the user uploads get stored in a directory in the website directory right now, so that they would be accessible via www.mysite.com/user/files/ . There is an ftp account used to control that entire domain and all the files in it.

So if i were to create another ftp user, how would i go about allowing them to access a specific diretory in another users home directory.

Stuck On Creating Users

Dec 27, 2007

I currently own a dedicated server with direct admin.

Now I want to create a user account for someone else to upload stuff to the server via cuteftp or a program like. that.

But now I can't create another account with the same domain.

Is there anyway around this or another way to do this?

WHMCS Not Creating Accounts In WHM.

Dec 10, 2008

I installed WHMCS on my server and for some reason it is not creating the account in WHM after someone signs up. I tried installing Cp creator as well and for some reason that is not working either. So I now know the issue is is somewhere in the communication between the gateway and WHM. I am guessing WHM is where the problem is located, but then again I do not know. If you have any ideas please tell me because I am in need of whatever I can get. I am losing patience with this because I have been trying to setup this server for over a week.

Creating CPanel Shared Accounts

Oct 6, 2007

When creating cPanel shared accounts under a VPS account, do you create them under the root WHM or do you create a "ficticious" reseller account and place the shared accounts under the reseller WHM? Are there any advantages or disadvantages using either method?

Creating Web Hosting Accounts/asigning Bandwidth

Jul 14, 2008

The first thing i'm thinking of is cpanel but there's many others If you're runing a server with 5000gb traffic/bandwidth per month When you're creating hosting accounts, could you allow 5000gb in
each new account you're creating?

Like if you had unmetered, you'd put unmetered in every new account Considering no account would ever reach any way near their monthly allowance.

SSH Accounts For Users

Oct 26, 2008

I have a web server on my dedicated server with several web sites owned by a friend and myself. I am now wanting to setup a gameserver on the same box and will need to give someone I don't know or trust ssh access so that they can kill the gameserver and/or re-execute it as well as modify the configuration files.

How can I go about accomplishing this?

Plesk 11.x / Linux :: How To Stop Creating FTP Accounts And Remove Existing Ones

Dec 26, 2013

I have noticed that for each new subscription I create Plesk automatically creates an FTP account. Further; I cannot delete this. (It seems the Remove button would allow me to delete additional FTP accounts but not the one added when the subscription was created).

I would like:

1) To delete these system created FTP accounts

2) To prevent it doing this in future. I would like to create subscriptions without FTP accounts.

I'd prefer to do it this way and leave the FTP server running. However; I am wondering about disabling FTP access altogether if I have to. I do use SFTP. I'm afraid my Linux knowledge is so limited I don't know if SFTP uses the FTP server; so if I turned off the ftp server whether that would prevent sftp access?

The motivation for doing this is that while I have 'customers' and subscribers in fact I am the only user and will transfer files to the server by SFTP and then move them around the server logged on via SSH. Since I'm not using FTP it seems sensible not to have all these accounts floating about.

Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Page Not Found / Timeout / 502 Bad Gateway Error Creating Accounts

Jun 22, 2015

As I read, when Plesk and WHMCS are in the same server, you may have 502 bad gateway errors when creating an account through WHMCS..Page not Found/Timeout/502 Bad Gateway error creating accounts with Plesk 10+..By default Plesk 10 and above performs a forced restart of apache when an account is created or suspended which causes WHMCS to lose connection to the server, and if your WHMCS is on the same server, you will also lose connection to WHMCS at the same time.

In order to resolve this please refer to the following knowledgebase article for instructions on configuring Plesk to perform a graceful restart instead: URL..

But when I activate nginx in Plesk the 502 bad Gateway problem comes back.Is there an option to activate Nginx graceful restart in Plesk?

How Many Users Will My Host/site Be Able To Support

Feb 12, 2009

I know this sounds a difficult question, but any rough answer is better than none. I am sure there are rough expectations.

Will it be 10's, 100's, 1,000's, 10,000's etc.

I am looking at a dedicated server Intel Pentium Dual Core 2.0GHz, 1GB memory with network speed of 100mb (with gigabyte burst whatever that means).

[url]- bronze package - if anyone is interested)

I will run one site only. The site has very heavy database usage and normal page views with average images.

Video / most photos are hosted and delivered with a seperate, top-quality CDN.

Your answer might be... "You should get about 1000 surfing, using database etc. before you notice a slow down" etc.

I suppose the thing is.. at what stage would I need a second dedicated server / package upgrade / what will this server get me?

Imhosted Vs GNAX - Users Can't Get To Site

Apr 21, 2008

I have a site hosted with Imhosted.

6 days ago, three users, one from Denmark, one from the UK and one from California - all reported connectivity trouble. I asked for tracert's from all three.

Two of them fail at 209.51.131.250 ( the California and Denmark one ) and one fails at 209.51.131.234

Both are GNAX servers.

I contacted Imhosted - and for 6 days they have ducked, dived, denied, and given me totally inappropriate stock replies ( such as asking me to check my IP address - when the actual affected IP addresses have already been supplied numerous times). They tried to fob me off saying it was an ISP issue ( two continents, at exactly the same time - yeah, right )

Imhosted have SAID, on two occasions, that they've contacted GNAX to have them fix the issue. So far, the problem remains for all three users.

Fortunately, we have a dedicated server of our own already, and we will be moving to it in the next few weeks. But meanwhile - what the hell can I do to rattle some sense into Imhosted and/or GNAX to get these poor guys back onto the site?

I've had three years of hell with Imhosted. Useless support, dreadful performance, unusable email, PHP and SQL issues - all in all, a dreadful experience.

Securing My Site So Only Registered Users Can Download Files

Nov 14, 2007

I'm setting up a web site for my online music library, doing it the hard way and learning as I go!

What I want to do I keep all the audio files secure so only registered users can get at them, how do I do this? FTP? permissions? Can I pass the user data from the client database somehow or do I have to set it up manually for each client?

I'm using php and mysql and have a table set up with all the file locations in it and that side of things is mostly working well. Once a user gets the URL of the file how do I make sure only that user can download the file?

I've tried searching the web for info but I have the sneaking suspicion I'm not asking the right question.

Hotmail And Yahoo Users Not Receiving Mails From My Site

Dec 7, 2007

Gmail users are fine.

Two days ago, Yahoo and hotmail users were receiving emails in the Junk folder. I thought this was due to the Reverse DNS settings not being set. So, I contacted Rus from cheapVPS and asked him to enable the Reverse DNS setting after I entered it in the Hyper VM panel, and he kindly did it.

Unfortunately, since the Reverse DNS setting was entered, Yahoo and Hotmail users stopped receiving mails from my site. Gmail users never faced any problem.
the logs (from maillog) are as follows:

Preventing Users From Connecting To Other Users Database

Mar 25, 2009

On my server, users can connect to any database as long as they have the database user and password. This makes it easier to hack any database on the server.
What I want to do is to make the users can only connect to their own databases and not other's.

I tried changing the localhost ip address but it didn't work ( I assume I didn't do it the right way)

Static Routes With Linux & Shorewall (site To Site VPN Virtual Private Network)

Mar 29, 2009

Attached is a (badly) drawn diagram of two sites, connected by a vpn.

The site to the left, is network 10.0.0.0/24 which runs a linux server as the router for the network.

The site to the right, is network 10.1.0.0/24 which runs a windows 2003 server as the router for the network.

Now, my problem is, the clients behind the windows 2003 server can ping any machine on the first network because i setup a static route to route all traffic to 10.0.0.0/24 over the vpn interface.

now, my problem is, only the linux server can ping any machine on the windows 2003 network, any client behind the linux server cant seem to route over the interface.

I have the following route on the linux server: .....

Plesk Automation :: Adding Dedicated IP Breaks Site (visitors Land On Default Site)

Apr 14, 2015

Starting point: a working site using a shared IPv4, dedicated IPv6, and SSL. HTTP and HTTPS work, the latter only using SNI of course.

The good news: If I simply allocate an IP resource of 1 to a subscription it is pulled from the pool, assigned to the service node, assigned to the web site, DNS is updated, and the site is automatically changed to using a Dedicated IPv4 and Dedicated IPv6.

The bad news: visitors land on the default web site of the service node, with the default SSL certificate.

Other info: I can't ping the new IP, even though it shows in "ip a l" and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:0. [edited]

After the IP assignment, it is still installed, and /etc/httpd/conf/plesk.conf.d/ip_default/domainname.conf shows the new certificate is being used.

However, a second set of VirtualHost entries is created in server.conf for this IP for ports 80 and 443, with NameVirtualHost enabled on the new IP. The port 443 entry uses the default certificate. Apache's setup this default VirtualHost entry will override the web site configuration because Apache is listening on port 443 with the wrong cert.

If I go to "Change webspace settings" and toggle to Shared IPv4, Dedicated IPv6 the site works again via HTTPS, and Dedicated IPv4 and Dedicated IPv6 breaks it again. Setting the SSL cert to None and back again does not work.

Setting the SSL cert to None, changing to a dedicated IP, and enabling SSL results in the server being inexplicably inaccessible...browsers no longer connect to either the default site or the correct site, and I don't see any entries in the vhosts's logs.
