Softaculous Added to All Servers

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

A number of clients have asked if we have ever considered installing Softaculous instead of Installatron. We’ve been testing Softaculous on our development servers to see if it’s worth deploying and we’re pleased to announce it has now been installed on all shared and reseller servers!

This has been discussed in our private forums and we have decided we will not be removing Installatron and both will run side-by-side, however we won’t be creating our WHMCS auto-installer for Installatron, this will now be handled by Softaculous.

Softaculous is an auto installer for cPanel and DirectAdmin. Unlike other auto installers Softaculous is much faster, well designed and it installs all scripts in just ONE STEP. The creators of Softaculous are constantly adding new scripts to their installer, at the time of writing this post there are currently 136 scripts that can be automatically installed.

Softaculous also handles software updates and can import existing installs. To view a list of scripts that can be automatically installed and updated, click here. To access simply click the ‘Softaculous Installer’ button within cPanel.

Exclusive – Automatically Create Sub-Resellers!

Saturday, January 16th, 2010

We’re proud to announce that EZPZ Hosting is (probably) the first to release a WHMPHP module to allow resellers to automatically create sub-resellers!

Previously there was no way to automatically create a reseller so this had to be handled manually, however with our WHMCS module this can now be performed automatically! The module is incredibly simple to setup and requires you to upload just two files to your WHMCS installation.

A new client can order a reseller package through your website and automatically have the account setup and the welcome email sent. The module can also be used to automatically suspend, unsuspend and terminate the reseller directly through WHMCS.

To download this package, resellers can visit the client area at https://clients.ezpzhosting.co.uk – go to ‘My Products/Services’ and click the icon next to your reseller package. Full instructions on setup and usage are also included.

If you have any new ideas for this module, we would love to hear them.

WHMCS Autoinstaller Updated to 4.1.2

Tuesday, December 29th, 2009

Our WHMCS autoinstaller has now been updated to 4.1.2

Installing WHMCS couldn’t be easier, simply click ‘Installatron’ in your cPanel then click WHMCS. Simply enter your desired admin details and license key. Uploading files, changing permissions, creating the database and writing configuration files is done automatically.

cPanel Upgraded – New Features!

Thursday, December 17th, 2009

cPanel has now been upgraded to 11.25 on all servers. This bring a whole range of new features including the ability to edit DNS zones right from cPanel, an enhanced AJAX interface and more.

Performance

cPanel/WHM 11.25 implements some major changes throughout our mailing system. We’ve adjusted the Exim configuration to allow a single process to listen on multiple ports, thereby reducing RAM and CPU usage. In addition to this, we’ve also improved quota lookup efficiency.

RoundCube webmail can now operate using the lightweight SQLite database engine. This gives each email account its own SQLite database, and assigns ownership of the RoundCube process to the cPanel account, for easier process accounting.

Version 11.25 also updates RoundCube, SquirrelMail, and Mailman to their most current versions.

Security

We know that security is important to you. That’s why we’ve added numerous security features to cPanel/WHM 11.25. Our new security token system attempts to prevent cross-site request forgery (XSRF) attacks by appending URLs with a session token in the form of cpsess<number>. When this feature is enabled, absolute URLs are no longer allowed. This new feature helps to ensure a safe environment for you and your customers.

Refined User Interface

We’ve revamped the cPanel home page with even cleaner HTML, and reduced the number of HTTP requests the page sends, resulting in shorter load times. Plus, we optimized the CSS used by cPanel, to speed page loading throughout the entire cPanel interface.

We’ve also overhauled one of cPanel’s most frequently accessed areas: the Email Accounts page. It now combines all the major functionality involved with email accounts into a single page: you can add, search, sort, and delete accounts, as well as change passwords and quotas, all without leaving the page. With its clean new design, this page provides a faster, more intuitive way to manage your email.

cPanel/WHM 11.25 comes equipped with an improved editor for MX (mail exchanger) entries. This new editor allows you to configure multiple mail exchangers with the same priority, for balancing the load on your mail servers.

Free MaxMind minFraud accounts for resellers

Monday, November 16th, 2009

Fraud is a huge problem for any web hosting company, especially those offering automatic setup without checking the order.

Each reseller account comes with a free WHMCS license to make it easier to invoice and support your clients as well as automatically setup new orders. In addition to your WHMCS license, each reseller account comes with a free MaxMind minFraud account!

With MaxMind all new orders are automatically scanned and numerous checks are carried out in an instant. The minFraud service returns a risk score for each order and information for up to 22 other checks to help you determine the riskiness of a transaction. WHMCS can also be setup to automatically reject orders over a defined score, allowing you to manually check the order before it is setup on the server.

To sign up for your free MaxMind minFraud account, login to the client area and click ‘My Product/Services’.

Litespeed is an Apache web server replacement that is proven to server web pages up to 9 times faster and dynamic content up to 2 times faster than Apache.

Installatron added to all cPanel servers!

Saturday, May 16th, 2009

We have now added Installatron to all cPanel servers.

Once again, you spoke and we listened. A number of clients commented on how slow Fantastico are at releasing updates which often left your websites running out of date software.

Installatron is a much more up-to-date one click installer with an excellent development and support team behind it. This will also allow us to create custom installers for software that isn’t already added. We’ve already created a WHMCS auto-installer allowing you to install the popular billing software within minutes.

Let us know what you think, do you prefer Installatron over Fantastico?
