[edit] In beta debian

Debian status changed from In Dev to BETA a while back...cccc


Debian support has been completely dropped, just look at the cPanel website. Where Debian was once listed, Windows Server 2003 is now listed.


Windows Server 2003 is no longer listed, however Windows Server 2008 is.

[edit] Merge cPanel and WebHost Manager (WHM) pages

It makes sense to merge the cPanel and WHM pages as the two interfaces are part of one software package. The installation includes both interfaces and code is shared between them.


[edit] Extremely Large Feature List

Would it be unreasonable to post a link to the corporate website feature list page rather than trying inanely to list every feature? There are rather a lot, and I don't think the page would look clean. Alternatively, we could list the most important features or group them into sections. What would be the best way?Xyrael 19:52, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

Being bold... RTFantasticDiff. I removed WysiwygPro entirely, as it doesn't appear to be a CPanel feature. Zetawoof 22:48, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

There should be another note that mentions cPanel as a popular mechanism used by phishers and adware e-mail scams. For all your lesser hackers, a quick drop by the originating address will result in cPanel. For slightly more intelligent adware, we see that the fake front page quickly turns into a cPanel cover due to bandwidth restrictions or site removal. I don't know if cPanel is popular for clandestine activities because of its ease of use or because of a lack of security. -- —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.195.78.102 (talk • contribs)

What you're probably seeing is just a result of the fact that a lot of web hosts use CPanel, so, if the user gets dropped from the host due to TOS violations or bandwidth overage, you get a CPanel error page. Zetawoof 03:12, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
Additionally, going to the IP address of a server running cPanel will either give you a "There is no site configured at this address" page, or a "Great Success! Apache is working on your cPanel and WHM Server" page. Daniel15 (Talk/Contribs) 08:19, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Versions

There should be a section on versions and improvements and definetely what version it is at right now. 70.111.218.254 20:39, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

I've added a bit on the versions, can someone please expand on it? Daniel15 01:47, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
I think cPanel is on its 11.4.6-RELEASE or newer looking at one of our websites at work, 72.145.158.36
Yeah, the version numbers in the article haven't been updated for a while. I'll update them now :) Daniel15 (Talk/Contribs) 10:15, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Builds

Why was the information on the cPanel builds removed? --Daniel15 (Talk/Contribs) 11:29, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Screenshots

I see you have screenshots of the domain owner panel, but not of the reseller domain or WHM panels. Would these screenshots be useful in this article? Jrdaigle1000 (talk) 00:40, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
