WebHost Manager (WHM) is a commercial server administration system that manages hosted cPanel accounts. This module provides a user and program interface to some of WHM's reseller functions, enabling Drupal administrators, authorized users, or other modules to list, create, and (un)suspend cPanel accounts.
This project is not authorized or supported by cPanel. For information on the cPanel or WHM products, see: http://www.cpanel.net
Download the latest release of this module from: http://drupal.org/project/whm or http://mjco.github.io/WHM
Uncompress the archive in your modules directory (sites/all/modules or sites/[name]/modules).
In Drupal, go to the modules page (Site building >> Modules) and enable the WHM module listed under the Hosting category.
To use the module, it must be configured with a WHM host and reseller account. Go to the module's settings form (Admin > WHM or example.com/admin/whm) and enter the hostname of your WHM server, the username for a reseller account, and its remote access key. The remote access key is generated by WHM, and can be found under 'Setup Remote Access Key' in the WHM interface. Note: In WHM, the reseller account must be granted specific permission to list, create, and suspend accounts.
This module enables three WHM functions through a user and programming interface: listing, creating, and (un)suspending accounts managed by the specified reseller. These functions are accessible to authorized users through the Administer >> WHM menu.
The list accounts page displays the username, domain name, and hosting plan. Additionally, it allows accounts to be suspended or unsuspended. The create account page allows a new account to be created with a specified username, contact e-mail address, password, domain name, and hosting plan.
User access to these functions is limited by the permissions set in Admin > People > Permissions under the WHM heading. Access can be granted by function (e.g: to list accounts, to create a new account, or to (un)suspend accounts).
Additionally, this module provides a direct programming interface to these WHM functions. Note: There are no access restrictions to the functions, as it is expected that programs utilizing these functions would implement their own permissions system.
