Wouldn't it be nice to be able to have your clients arrive at your web site and minutes later receive a note that their account has been created. Well surely with the RaQ CP running off scripts, we all know that it can be done!

WELL - A genius has already started and has an automation system on his site up and working! He even was so kind as to create a little web site about it, along with the sources for the scripts.

http://www.m2soft.com/~mjehlenz/signup.html

The only *problem* is that it still lacks the "front end" script to run and interface with the clients. If I knew a damn thing about Perl I would have had it written a month ago when he created this site. Is their anyone who could help? I'm certainly willing to pay, and I'm sure many other RaQ owners would be to!

Thanks,

I agree, I too need a front end for his stuff, it's been a while and he did say that he was going to create a generic front end shortly, but hasn't done it yet, is there anyone on that mailing list that doesn't seem to work anyway, that has created the front end to his backend scripts.

Thanks,
Bbox

I doubt it. They would have shared it with us. But does anyone on here have the ability to do such?

Thanks,
Brandon

The link is gone.. I could really use this info or any info that relates to automating the creation of sites and users on Raq 4.

Thanks..

What do you need to know? The raq has some user/site creation perl modules, you really need to run a cron script to pick up changes from the frontend.

Mail me if you want any help.

Hey, that's my website ;-) That whole thing was just a proof of concept. And there was (and still is) a very basic front end script in the last version. If you're still interested in the scripts just drop me a mail.

Same for me, and if I can help develop this a little further I'd be glad to help. Thanks in advance for any info.

yup uses php and perl and the existing adduser script on the raq. sets up the site, user and dns entries

There's quite a few scripts for RH/standard linux. Do a search here for 'free' or 'open source' control panels. I found a number of bits and pieces on freshmeat too.

Hi again;
just to start the thread again, any chance we can find that link in the near future ? ;)

Yep, I've put it back online. You'll find it at http://www.m2soft.com/signup/signup.html
I've been working on it quite a bit lately. I hope I'll find the time to include the most recent version soon.

I advise every one of you not to use this system in production environments. It's everything but secure ;-)

Cu, Moritz

thanks a lot for the contribution, don't know when I'll have the time but if I touch this and modify it I'll let the community know.
