DirectAdmin To CPanel (mbox To Maildir Formats)

Apr 28, 2009

I have a vps with directadmin and some servers with cPanel.

I need migrate the emails of a client (only 1 client) in the directadmin server to the cPanel Server.

The problem:

The directadmin use mbox format email, and cPanel use Maildir format email.

(Note: The converter not work exactly for my issue).

Switching From Mbox To Maildir Formats

Jun 3, 2009

We are running RHEL 4 servers using sendmail, qpopper and UW Imap. Right now we are using the old mbox format for user mail and now we are suffering from inefficiency.

Has anybody gone through the conversion process when there are a LOT of existing accounts and we want to avoid service interruptions.

Mbox Vs Maildir

May 31, 2008

For an ISP/webhost style email setup, what is better, mbox or maildir? Everyone seems to recommend maildir, but the issue I'm thinking of is if people decide to store their mail on server it will eventually run out of inodes, and I'm sure reading 1 single file is much faster then reading thousands,

Interesting Mbox / Maildir

Feb 10, 2008

How would it be possible for a cpanel system to "convert" from maildir back to mbox without direct intention / invention?

The story

1) Mail (with mailscanner - maildir) works fine for months - Exim failed and don't want to restart

2) Contact support company - Fixed and restarted exim

3) No email for 30 hours - Techs checked, tested, removed mailscanner and confirmed everything works fine

4) Found the problem myself - Email system still on maildir but exim delivered mail to INBOX folder instead than the maildir folders so I fixed it by running the maildir conversion to move the mail in inbox to the correct maildir folders.

5) The server support company insist that THEY did not break the system and everything working fine etc but I am sure that I am correct.

a) Stopped to receive any email direct after their tech fixed the exim issue. (After I did the conversion I got over 400 emails, the first of them the email from them that said exim is now fixed and restarted)

b) They created test email account and confirmed with tests that everything works fine but I think that the newly created email account would be a MBOX account and thus working fine while the rest of the email accounts on the server would still be maildir accounts and thus not receiving any emails until I ran the conversion script.

I am no server admin or tech so I cannot say what error would turn mailbox back to mbox hence the question above.

(Important - It worries me a bit as to why exim failed in the first place and while the first mail I received from the techs sort of "proof" that something they did caused the backwards conversion it's also possible that something else such as an automatic update caused this - Since exim failed I would not receive any mail at all, and after the tech restarted exim their email would be the first to land in the inbox instead of maildir folders)

Maybe worthwhile to investigate the reason why exim failed and what caused the turn from maildir to mbox because I think it would then be a global cpanel issue.

Web Host For Various Media Formats

Nov 7, 2009

I'm really enjoying all the helpful topics that this website has to offer . However, I've still been having trouble deciding on a web host.

I'm planning to make a website that will consist of all different forms of media, (video, audio, photos) and I wanted to know if there were any web hosts out there that specialize in that sort of thing?

Also, I wanted to know if Wordpress was a good choice for someone like me who doesn't have a whole lot of website building skill but wants to make a decent looking site.

CPanel Or DirectAdmin Using 8GB RAM

Dec 5, 2008

I'm trying to decide what panel to get, I've used cPanel and DirectAdmin before so trying to figure out which is best suited for me.

Obviously cPanel has more features but uses more ram. Do I really need all the features of cPanel or can I get by using DirectAdmin?

The server I'm going to get will have 8GB RAM so does it matter that cPanel uses more memory because there is so much ram anyway?

Cpanel Vs Directadmin

Jun 3, 2007

On average, how much memory does cpanel use when compared to a standard directadmin setup?

I've never had a chance to use directadmin before, but I've been reading quite a bit about it around the web and that it uses much less memory than cpanel.

Anyone used both? Which is better for VPS hosting?

Why CPanel And Why Not DirectAdmin

Jun 22, 2007

I have been using cPanel for long and some custom panels like DreamHost and Site5 provide.

I have seen DirectAdmin a couple of times but never used it. Now my question is that:

Why we should we use cPanel instead of DirectAdmin, when:

* DA is cheaper than cPanel.

* People says DA support is better.

* DA have nearly all features cPanel have.

* DA looks prettier than cPanel.

I could be able to state more if I have been using DA.

Now, please list your REAL world reason to not use DA but cPanel. Lets keep it on topic.

My reason, as of now, is:

* Transferring site from cPanel to cPanel is easier than cPanel to DA.

I really need at least 10 reasons for not choosing DA.

Warning: Deprecated Mbox Still In Use

Jan 25, 2008

Been having problems with 2 specific sites on a server, this is one of the domains i'm having issues with.

I went under edit a dns zone and viewed the DNS of some of my domains and some of them have DNS I have not added before. This is also happening when I create new accounts on Cpanel.

for example, on one of the domains I added, it shows the DNS as "ns45.domaincontrol.com" under edit a DNS zone. These are not my DNS servers nor did I add those. What would be causing this?

Also getting this error when I try to change anything.

Which Would Be Faster? Ram = 128 With DirectAdmin Or 256 With Cpanel

Jul 4, 2007

I have heard that Direct Admin is much faster then cpanel & require much less resources then cpanel... I was just wondering if I get vps with 128 ram with Direct admin on it, would it be better than vps with 256 ram with cpanel installed... I am running 3 websites with almost 10 to 20 users at a time (at max 50).... I like both cpanel & directadmin but was thinking if 128 ram with DirectAdmin can give more speed on 128 then I won't spend more money on 256 with cpanel... If anybody have an opinion then please put it here...

Access DirectAdmin Site Without Domain - Possible With CPanel

Mar 7, 2009

I'm new to using directadmin and I've got a problem; I've not yet switched the DNS over to the directadmin server 'cause I want to make sure the sites work first, however I can't find how to view the sites. With cpanel you can go to http://192.168.1.1/~username (where 192.168.1.1 = IP of server and username is username of account).
is this possible with directadmin? I can't find anything about it, anywhere.

DirectAdmin And CPanel Outlook Configured Automatically?

My understanding is that if I join a webhosting company that operates the cPanel web control panel then my Outlook Express email program would get configured automatically.

However if the webhosting company were to be using DirectAdmin web control panel would I get the same benefit in this respect please?

VPS package and I have the choice between LxAdmin, cPanel, Webmin, and DirectAdmin.

I'm used to cPanel, so that's my comfort zone, but it costs extra.

I'm leaning towards DirectAdmin because I liked the demo site.

Directadmin Hosts Or Cpanel Hosts

Aug 16, 2008

Recently I stumbled along a host on here with a good rep and that uses direct admin.

Because they were very nice on the live support I signed up to see what direct admin was like.

Its very diferent from cpanel. Some parts seem to be harder to use like the phpmyadmin requires the username and password to the database you created not the control panel username and password like cpanel. Although I guess that could be a good security feature just in case some one gets into the control panel they can not get into the phpmyadmin, then again if they are smart and were able to get into the control panel they could get into ftp and look what the username and password is on the config file for the script you are using.

The bandwidth meter seems to be better in direct admin although I think its acting up for me as its putting yesterdays bandwidth on todays. I was told by the host that it updates every 2 hours and at first it did but now its gone to every day. Oh and unlike cpanel this bandwidth meter includes bandwith used by the control panel.

Niether one from what I can tell counts sftp though at least for the hosts I have right now.

Directadmin Reseller

Apr 28, 2008

Quite simple - does anybody know of any Directadmin resellers?

Me (and my customers) are used to directadmin so that is the control panel I would like to use on my servers. However not all hosts offer directadmin, and that means I would have to get it from directadmin.com myself.

The main 'issue' with this is pricing. Single licenses cost $29 per month. While a reseller can get the same license for a one-time fee of $49. That means turning a profit in 1.5 months when going that way instead of single licenses.

Does anybody know of a way to buy these one-time licenses? I am aware of the fact that they do not include support, that is fine.
