Hello,

I have a dedicated server, but i only use it to host my websites and my domain names (i use it as a nameserver)
I currently run Interworx (http://www.interworx.info) on it...

What i'm looking for is a software management:
- Easy to use (and intuitive, that's why i like interworx)
- Secured (interworx run security updates automatically)
- Cheap
- Must have an API
- Very good for managing domains (wildcard subdomains, etc.)

I'm not a professionnal web hoster, as said, i use it for "personal" use.

If you can help me,
Thank you :)

My recommendation would be a very basic Plesk license.

Do you mean this one ?

Well as i would choose unlimited domains, i will pay $799 or $70 per month... I'm currently paying interworx only $20 / month

Do you have any other suggestion ?
Thank you

well i think interworx is very good, but:
- It doesn't work properly on my server (fedora 2), I had several problems that the interworx team fixed for me. I think i'll have more in the future and i think they're not all fixed, as they fixed those i discovered, but there are maybe others.
- And for my activities (domain business), interworx is not appropriated as it's most for web hosters.

Anyway, if i can't find another one, i'll stay with interworx!

I want to add that i said i want a cheap software, it means i'm ok to pay up to $30-35/month if it really fits my needs.

I personaly wouldnt use fedora because it is the base for redhat, and has many, many bugs in it, unless you go with redhat enterprise then i would switch to another os.

How many domains is a lot?

If the link Goldwing mentioned didn't work, it would help to give some numbers.

Well it's not a huge portfolio but it's growing every day :stickout:
I currently have around 150 domains, and this is very long to manage all of these via interworx, i just received my free licence key from zervex, i'll give install it when i'll have some time to move all my websites to a temporary server...
