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.
what the other webheads here might think.
I recently purchased a VPS and was wondering which control panel I should ask my provider to install. Both are free, but I was wondering which one you guys preferred?
Also, which one uses less system resources (like RAM, etc)?
virtualmin (free version) / webmin /lxadmin which is better and easier to you, with more features?
Used only lxadmin and cPanel so far
We've had a request to assist a transfer from LxAdmin to DirectAdmin.
We don't mind moving all the files and MySQL manually, however our main concern is copying the old emails.
All the settings (ie. mail forwarders, cron jobs) can be re-created.
how to move the MailDir from LxAdmin to DirectAdmin?
which is better, LXAdmin or DirectAdmin? I have decided to sign up with world-of-computing.com. They have a promo code for free DirectAdmin. Should I go for it or use the 25%off promo code? The virtualization technology used is OpenVZ.
Does anyone have any experience with them? I had chatted with a Sales Rep for 45 minutes and he has been really helpful. But I know that support for sales and service is entirely different.
Also which OS should I go for (CentOS4/CentOS5/Fedora7/Debian4/Gentoo4/OpenSuse 10/Ubuntu 8.04)?
i had cpanel but its lic is over.. now i want to install webmin, so can i do that..
i fear that if i remove cpanel then all my accounts and data will be lost..
Can anyone share some experiences on this? I'm new to VPS so it's not clear how much RAM cPanel will consume comparing with Webmin after everything is configured for production?
View 10 Replies View RelatedI rebuilt my VPS (again) today and noticed something different. Instead of the usual "Install LxAdmin" icon in HyperVM I read "Install Kloxo."
I looked at the demo and everything looked the same. Has anyone noticed any definite differences between the two? Has anything significant changed apart from the name?
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?
If you were looking for a web host, which control panel do you want?
cPanel or DirectAdmin?
I know most will choose cPanel, but I want to find out how many choose DA and how many choose cPanel.
i am swtiching the hosting package from company A to company B. Company A is using directadmin and company B using cpanel.
How can i transfer all my mail to cpanel?
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?
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.
which ones best though?

Which is better LXadmin or Cpanel?
Is it possible to transfer cpanel accounts to lxadmin and keep them intact?
I understand lxadmin also has a customer panel - is this correct?
I have a direct admin server and I am planning to take backup of all the accounts in my DA server to my friend server. This is just for safety precautions.
My friend server is Cpanel.
I wanted a move 1 accounts from cPanel to DirectAdmin server platform. I know it has to be done manually. But this one account has 800MB.
So the question is:
Is it possible to tar public_html while keeping every permission & folder ownership at it's correct setting?
(Sql is not a problem for me)
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...
View 14 Replies View Relatedlike know the difference mainly between cpanel and directadmin;
So is important that the host have all the plans :
one with cpanel and one with directadmin (if have plesk and others is also better but not fundamental )

For your experience are both stable the panels and which are the principal difference?

I have a reseller account that is hosted at ns1 / ns2.mydomain.com and it is configured via cPanel / WHM and is accessed by mydomain.com
I recently purchased a dedicated server and would like the dedicated server to have a ns3 / ns4.mydomain.com I also would like that the dedicated server be accessed by another domain (other than mydomain.com). Is this possible?
If that is not possible, what way is a good way of doing this?
I receive my server tha preinstall diectadmin. May I know is it possible I remove the directmin adn install the cpanel without format the drive?
View 7 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to transfer (migrate) an account from cPanel to DirectAdmin?
And the other way, DirectAdmin -> Cpanel?
Has anyone done this or currently running this setup? to try it with my directadmin server first but havent found very good documentation or howtos. Ive looked the last week or so and havent really found anything helpful. So if anyone is running such a setup Id like to know how you did it and how much better if any it is.
View 0 Replies View RelatedI'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.
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).
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?
I want to know if their support & service is good ? What is their response time for supports ? Is the cPanel VPS managed ? etc.
