Version 1.22.2 ​

Released: 2004-06-22

Log /~username bandwidth new ​

Once you've updated to this version of DA, you'll need to make some changes to your httpd.conf file in order for this to take effect:

  1. Disable UserDir by running:
perl
perl -pi -e 's/UserDir public_html/UserDir disabled/' /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
  1. Setup /~username to be accessed only via your server IP or hostname:
  1. edit /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
  2. go to the bottom of the file and make the 2 virtualhosts look like this:

##########

LogFormat "%b "%r"" homedir

The default site for the server:

<VirtualHost 192.168.0.2:80>
        ServerAdmin webmaster@yourhostname.com
        AliasMatch ^/~(\[^/\]+)(/.*)* /home/$1/public_html$2
        DocumentRoot /var/www/html
        ServerName localhost
        ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/cgi-bin/

        CustomLog /var/log/httpd/homedir.log homedir
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 192.168.0.2:443>
        ServerName localhost
        ServerAdmin webmaster@yourhostname.com
        AliasMatch ^/~(\[^/\]+)(/.*)* /home/$1/public_html$2
        DocumentRoot /var/www/html
        ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/cgi-bin/

        SSLEngine on
        SSLCertificateFile /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt
        SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.key/server.key

        CustomLog /var/log/httpd/homedir.log homedir
</VirtualHost>

###############

Note that you need to add the Logformat as well. You will only need to insert 5 newlines of code... the logformat, 2 AliasMatch lines and 2 CustomLog lines.

The rest is handled by DA.

To force DA to parse the log and dump the bandwidth into the user's bandwidth.tally files, just run:

echo "action=bandwidth&value=homedir" >>/usr/local/directadmin/data/task.queue

LANG_ENCODING=iso-8859-1 (SKINS) new ​

Added LANG_ENCODING=iso-8859-1 to the lt_standard.html file. Then in header.html, use:

html
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=|LANG_ENCODING|">

Autoforward to https if http is used when SSL is on. new ​

If ssl is being used with DirectAdmin but the user only uses http in his/her browser, DirectAdmin will send an https Location header to the client, instead of silently dying. It will be forwarded to:

https://<servier_ip>:<server_port>

Since no data could be transferred yet, DirectAdmin will not know which domain was used, or which GET requst, so that's all that can be done.

Plugin Feature for plugin designers new ​

Removed in DirectAdmin 1.694.

Since there is text in some of the images, set the images in the languages files.

Also, set the link to site-helper.com to be set in the languages files as well.

You can now change the user,reseller and admin site-helper links by setting them in your directadmin.conf file:

user_helper=www.site-helper.com
reseller_helper=reseller.site-helper.com
admin_helper=admin.site-helper.com

The values will be replaced in the skins by the following tokens:

USER_HELPER
RESELLER_HELPER
ADMIN_HELPER

For the images, if you want to use a different images with the language packs, see this link: http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=35

files_custom.conf can now be used along side all other files of the same type (files_user.conf, files_reseller.conf and files_admin.conf). What this new type will do is override all of the other files if a skin designer wishes to permanently add an image tag without worrying about skin updates removing it. With that said, skin designers must not include it in their skins package. All tag additions must be made in place by the installer.

One example use of the files_custom.conf file is to add your own header to the directadmin skins and be able to allow updates without destroying your changes. You'd simply add:

IMG_SKIN_HEADER=images/header_new.gif

to the files_custom.conf file and voila, you'll have header_new.gif being displayed instead. (otherwise known and branding)

action=rewrite&value=named new ​

rewrite all dns files with the named.db file. (The dns_*.conf files are not used because they are just for new zones.)

echo "action=rewrite&value=named" >> /usr/local/directadmin/data/task.queue

SPF records new ​

Added support for spf records in dns zone files.

Done by adding:

|DOMAIN|. IN TXT "v=spf1 -all"

to the bottom of the named.db template. You'll need this version to access the |DOMAIN| token.

Count items during tally fix ​

Count items such as databases and subdomains during the nightly tally. Currently, it only counts them when added/removed through DA so restore won't change the number.

Workaround: add/remove a test item through DA and the number will be corrected.

Majordomo paths fix ​

/usr/lib/sendmail to /usr/sbin/sendmail

/usr/tmp to /tmp

in the /usr/local/directadmin/data/templates/majordomo.cf

subdomain bandwidth stats in scientific notation fix ​

This has already been fixed, just adding it to the bugs section so we stop getting emails about it 😃

Message all users timesout when selecting too many users fix ​

Forked the directadmin process to send the messages in the background.

Set the host for mysql to the correct IP when using a remote MySQL server fix ​

Currently, when using a remote mysql server, the "host" value is still set to use "localhost". With this addition, if the connection doesn't go to localhost, the IP of the server will also be added as an access host.

Current workaround: add an access host to allow the connections.

Also show the actual mysql connection value once the database is created. "localhost" is not correct for remote mysql servers.

language file for show_domain.html (SKINS) fix ​

It was missed during translation. Already uploaded in the directadmin.com/enhanced.tar.gz file.

add php tags to php code in the skins fix ​

change <? to <?php

DNS read bug fix ​

When a dns zone was being read, it wasn't being null terminated, thus causing the string parser to fly off the end of the char[] array, genrating a segfault. Most systems don't seem to be affected because the OS initializes the arrays to null when they are created, but the freebsd 4.x's don't seem to do that, thus exposing the error.
