Hi,

Anyone use NIXT customer script?

Where can I find the package string in WHM?

Does the WHM actually works?

WOrks like a charm (modified :)). If you go into the "Add Account" in WHM and view the source scroll down until you find something that looks like:

blah_something,0,0,1,unlimited

That's the package string :).

I am currently using Cpanel 5. I could not find what you mentioned, 'ADD ACCOUNT' in WHM.

Is that in Account Functions?

Under Account Functions, I managed only to find List Accounts and Create a new Account.

However, I still unable to find the source you mentioned.
Could you expound them?

Regards

Sorry, I meant "Create a new Account". Once you click that click go to View -> Source (In Internet Explorer). You'll have to scroll down quite a bit, and you'll come accross a line that looks like somewhat like the one I mentioned above.

<html>
<head>
I do remember that the author wrote something like what you mentioned. But, when I click view source, I only get the following:

<title>WebHost Manager</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>

<frameset cols="217,566*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0" rows="*">
<frame src="/scripts/command" name="menuFrame" frameborder="no" scrolling="yes" id="menuFrame" />
<frameset rows="26,*" cols="*" framespacing="0" frameborder="no" border="0">
<frame src="/scripts/command?PFILE=topframe.html" name="topFrame" frameborder="no" scrolling="no" noresize id="topFrame"/>
<frame src="/scripts2/whmnews" name="mainFrame" id="mainFrame" frameborder="no" /></frameset>
</frameset>
<noframes></noframes>
</html>

So, where is the string??

This is what the string should look like:
<option value="n,y,350,y,bluelagoon,50,50,250,unlimited,50,6000,n,,,</option>

Explained here

Package String : 0,1,10,1,bluelagoon,5,6,7,8,9,150,0,0

The package string decodes as follows:
IP=0,cgi=1,quota=10,frontpage=1,theme=bluelagoon,maxftp=5
maxsql=6,maxpop=7,maxlst=8,maxsub=9,
bwlimit=150,hasshell=0,plan=0


Nixt doesn't do the newer Addon Domains, it also does NOT work on first install.
It took several of us to tweak this thing to get it to even work!!!

Don't ask if the guy making it will ever update it!!

All in all .. forget this Piece Of Junk before you get to far into it and spend the $50 on phpManager. At least that gets regular updates and there is a forum for support.

I got it running on first install. Furthermore, it's free and yes, the addon and parked domain features work just fine. It also happens to be 10x more modular then phpManager, and if you'd ever looked at the phpManager source code, it's probably the worst written code I've ever seen.

Should Andrew have to update it since whmManager costs $0.00... no he shouldn't. I added a few of my own modules and it works perfect for me. I'm kind of getting sick and tired of people that bitch and moan over FREE software.

Maybe you should learn PHP before you call a script junk.

Comp,

Thanks! I finally found it.

Well, anyway, does it work while click on WHM since I am yet to try out?

Besides, how do I make it re-curring should I am using PAYPAL?
It seems to me that I need to bill clients every month and they have to make payment monthly as well.

One question as you guys talk about the WHM strings.

I am thinking about offering domain name registration which includes email forwarding and URL forwarding. I guess I can create an account that way - but what would it take to also create the email forwarder and URL forwarder? Would I just look at the source in CPanel and add it to the string listed above?

JustinH

Nope... the URL forwarder would require changing the zone file for the respective domain. It would be possible, but would require some extra coding. The easiest way to to do the email forward is to create a .forward in the users /home/ directory (Keep in mind, I have no idea how well cpanel would like this).
