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 am having issues with my server and WHM. First of all, i followed the link here but i am a bit confused. When i goto add the Assign IP Address button it pops up and says no free ip addresses, i click on Add an A Entry for this Nameserver and the window pops up warning the domain file doesnt exist, it says it creates one and adds the A record.
A few notes, i did change the alternative main ethernet device to venet0:0, and the hostname to myserver.mydomain.net (as well as the actual hostname, so they match in both areas). On clicking next on the initial setup, i enabled the local nameserver. The setup completed and then the problems began.
Another massive issue i have is that i cannot create accounts, i goto create a new account and enter all the information. i hit create and the status says Account Created Sucessfully. However the account isnt listed in the account list, it is however listed in the dns zones (under edit dns).
zone "." IN { type hint; file "/var/named/named.ca"; };
zone "localdomain" IN { type master; file "/var/named/localdomain.zone"; allow-update { none; }; };
zone "localhost" IN { type master; file "/var/named/localhost.zone"; allow-update { none; }; };
zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" IN { type master; file "/var/named/named.local"; allow-update { none; }; };
zone "255.in-addr.arpa" IN { type master; file "/var/named/named.broadcast"; allow-update { none; }; };
zone "0.in-addr.arpa" IN { type master; file "/var/named/named.zero"; allow-update { none; }; };
zone "ns1.mydomain.net" { type master; file "/var/named/ns1.mydomain.net.db"; };
zone "ns2.mydomain.net" { type master; file "/var/named/ns2.mydomain.net.db"; };
I am confused about the ns1.mydomain.net and ns2.mydomain.net, surely these should be under one zone file mydomain.net.db? Can anyone please enlighhten me as to why WHM is creating the two zones seperately, or infact is creating as i believe subdomains?
I would like to run custom nameservers, but it says i only have 1 free ip. Do i need to purchase more ip addresses? When i goto 'Show or Delete Current IP Addresses' both my ip addresses are shown 90.90.90.90 and 90.90.90.91, but there is no delete button, it is only a list of the IPs in green.
Are there any fixes i can do, i dont understand why it is broken. How about resetting and performing a reinstall, where is the license file for WHM/cPanel stored, maybe i could move that out of the way, reinstall cPanel then re-register the license. Can i simply reinstall over the top and reset my settings to default?
Recently I adquired a new HD for one of my cpanel servers because the primary one was almost full at 90%, now i wanna create accounts in the new secondary HD. This HD is already monted as /home2 and ready to work, but I just dont know how to create the new accounts in WHM to use the secondary HD.... can anyone tell me how to do it using WHM ?
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 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..
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 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 know that after you have been running a site for a while you will have some "clutter" after a while. For example, email boxes that are not used might be taking up a lot of space because they are getting spammed.
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?
I am curious if anyone knows what 1and1.com's uplink speed is for their shared accounts? A shared developer account get's 3TB of bandwidth. But I am wondering what type of bandwidth that is. How fast is it?
i just had a simple question about wether there is any difference between getting a VPS plan (like that from jumpline) and a shared plan (like that from hostgator) for the purposes of hosting multiple domains.
It seems that for vps I have to create a "subdirectory" to create a new account for domain name. Plus the emails are all the same (so for example if I create joe@domain1.com and I have domain2.com registerd, joe@domain2.com will also work with the same username password).
On the shared side of things - I also do not get a very high level of isolation. Not like with reseller WHM package anyways. BUT the resellers lack the basic ssh access (at least the most favourables I looked at).
So i was wandering if anyone out there who is doing small-time part work and sells personal/business websites to clients knows which way is it better to go.
To get a VPS account and keep on creating subdirectories for each separate client (and hope they don't use the "other" domain names in the emails) OR get the shared account that allows unlimited domans OR something else.
I also forgot to mention that my budget does not extend beyond $20/month.
I run several sites and am wanting to setup several more. Currently I have two shared plans, but I don't like how the add-on domains are affected by the main domain (e.g. addon.main.com on 4## and 5## pages).
Is going reseller the easiest way for me to have these domains not affected by each other (a separate cpanel each)?
Finally, I don't use a lot of resources so are there actually reseller plans out there with lower prices (and lower resources too).
i have soon to be very busy site. it's a simple "school grade" searching website. giving your identification code and returning your exam grade. i try to put a dedicated server and within 5 min it hung. it was last year.
this year i try to put to 3 or 4 shared hosting and do a round robin dns. but the problem is 85% traffic is from the same ISP and it will cache the dns result.
