Hi,
I've modified some of the features on the webpanel (cpanel3), can anyone give me step by step instructions on how to upload to the right directory so it will show in my web host manager. I'm not an administrator, but I'm a bit familiar with Telnet. The PDF manual of the cpanel was not very clear on how to do this.
Thanks

just put all your files in a unique named directory (different from the current themes names) and put that directory on:
/usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend

---

lets say you uploaded using account xxy

just go to xxy (cd /home/xxy )

mv directory (directory=your theme) /usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend

then you can access it in the pull down menu at WHM

Thanks a lot CRego3D, I will try this over the week end. One more question, I have 2 hard drives in my server, what is the script to do a backup every morning at 4am?
I know I will need to format the hard drive first from WHM.
Could you please give me instructions on this, I would really appreciate.
Thanks again

I think that is a custom made script of Burstnet what are you looking for.
I remember a thread about it.
You can ask to Burst, but I think that they don't sell it to servers outside them.

There should be a standard script for this.
I got a script, but I'm not 100% confident on how to use it. Please correct me if I'm missing something.

backup
su
cd /root
ls
cat backup
df
./backup

Cpanel doesn't have a backup script, Burst seems to have one, we have one as well (for internal use) and others have their own, but this is all independednt from cpanel

(they all run at 4:00 becuase that's the time that cron.daily runs ;) )
