Installing phpShield Loaders
The first thing we need to do is check a couple of PHP settings. The easiest way to do this is with a phpinfo file. If you don't know how to create a phpinfo file, you can
Now that you have a php info file, upload it to your website's public_html directory and view it in your browser by typing http://www.yoursite.com/phpinfo.php in your address bar. You want to find/verify the following in your phpinfo.php file:Your PHP version
Thread Safety is disabled
enable_dl is set to on
The path to your extension_dir
Path to your php.ini file
Now connect to your webserver using your favorite SSH client and login as root.
Create a new working directory then change directories:

mkdir ~/phpshield cd ~/phpshield

Download the phpSHIELD loaders:

wget http://phpshield.com/loaders/phpshield.loaders.linux.zip

or if you have a 64 bit OS (most people will have a 32 bit OS so you will most likely use the code above)

wget http://phpshield.com/loaders/phpshield.loaders.linux-64.zip

Extract the loaders:

unzip phpshield.loaders.linux.zip

If you do a directory list: ls

you will see a bunch of files named phpshield.4.3.lin to phpshield.5.2.lin

. What we want to do here is find the phpshield file with the number that matches your PHP version. You can find your PHP version at the very top of your phpinfo file from earlier.
Now we need to copy the appropriate phpshield loader file to your PHP extensions directory.

cp ~/phpshield/phpshield.x.x.lin /path/to/your/php/extensions/directory

Replace x.x above with your PHP version and use the path to your PHP extensions directory (you should have found this in step 2 above.)

Open your php.ini file

nano /path/to/php/ini/php.ini

 

You should have found the path to your php.ini file in your phpinfo.php file from earlier.

Append the following to the Dynamic Extensions section of your php.ini file:

extension=phpshield/phpshield.x.x.lin

Replace x.x with the number on the phpshield file you moved earlier.

Finally, restart httpd: /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart

How to enable/Disable cPanel webmail interface for a user account or in server.

How to enable/Disable cPanel webmail interface for a user account or in server.

Customer wants to enable only the HORDE webmail interface for his domain and disable the rest. Usually there are three (3) webmail clients (horde, squirrel mail, roundcube). However, I was advised to make sure that a specific customer does not see more than one specified. I enabled “AUTOLOAD” option in the webmail interface but he is not satisfied. He came back asking to allow only HORDE interface for his webmail. How should i do that?

Solution: Consider my domain name is “hemanth.com” and my account name is “hemanth“. Now follow the steps below.

====================This option for that particular user account:
1) SSH to your server
2) Go to “cd /var/cpanel/users/”
3) vi hemanth
4) Paste the following lines
skiphorde=0
skipsqmail=1
skiprcmail=1

Note: The option 0 is enable and 1 is disable. in above line only HORDE is enabled in the webmail and Roundcube and squirrel  is disabled.

5) Then restart the cpanel service
/etc/init.d/cpanel restart

Now login to your webmail and check for the option.

This will change the server wide for all the domains in the server:
1) Login to your WHM
2) Go to “Server Configuration”
3) Click on “Tweak Settings”
4) Select mail option.
5) Turn off “Round Cube and Squirrel”
6) Save it.====================Redirections

http://your-domain.com:2095/3rdparty/roundcube/index.php
http://your-domain.com:2095/horde/login.php

http://your-domain.com:2095/3rdparty/squirrelmail/src/login.php

Note: You must replace your-domain.com with your actual domain name in the above examples.
