Plesk is develping a new version with lots of new features - so they say.

One of them:

The ability for the client to add their own domains. The admin can set how many, like the emails. For resellers, this isn't a bad idea. But what about transfer and d/space? umm, well... I won't say more.

One feature I'd like to see is the ability for the client to add their own sub-domains. Admins will know what a pain in the butt this is.

How's this, they recon clients will be able to setup sub-domains using -only- the method I described above.

NO! NO! NO! NO!


Many people moan about the limited PSA features. If you would like to see a more feature"ish" PSA, send your requests to them now.

I also urge you to bring up the issue of sub-domains.

I agree

Re sub-domains: I already did

From talking with Plesk 2.0 should be out soon.. They said there will be a ton of new things in it.. Really i like 1.3.1 and have been happy wiht it..

But reseller option in plesk would be great..

The new features are public:

mySQL management section (incl. phpMyAdmin)
Apache ASP supported
Upgraded statistics (incl. webalizer)
New Mailbox limitation preferences
Statistics monitoring for sysadmin
Anonymous FTP support
Webmail integration with IMAP/POP support
New Domain level login for clients
Client Domain creation capabilities
(Admin controlled Reseller Level)
Default DNS Template
PHP installed as module
New services section (Admin controlled sales service section)

Sounds good!

Have they given a date for the release of version 2?

Plesk looks like an ideal package and the reseller option is exactly what we are looking for....

1 point however....we'd rather just have the control panel itself and not have to take whatever version of Apache etc that they bundle with it!

How come it comes this way?

Cheers,

Check back in late July

Re Apache:

No, that wouldn't be possible. If you want to stay independent in terms of web server software version, you may want to use webmin or probably someone else has a solution for you.

Hey Jonny.. I was told the 18th of this next month but not a set date as far as i know but should be close to that i hope. :)
