    July 2026 – Effectively the end of the DirectAdmin Legacy License

    Yeah, I've seen that too. Some hard to ignore cluster options.

    A roadmap with more cluster awareness would be very welcome :)

    July 2026 – Effectively the end of the DirectAdmin Legacy License

    I'm not sure how to make this more clear. I see things as a user, as a developer (because that is my community, hence the name), as a hoster, as a marketeer, as a businessman and whatever hat fits me best when needed. Things are seldom profitable from all views so I'm sorry if things are hard...

    July 2026 – Effectively the end of the DirectAdmin Legacy License

    Before you say everything is invalid, please try to understand what I say first.

    So..... do you want to buy some legacy licenses and have a party? Meet me at dawn at 'Lukes'. (I had to say this).

    July 2026 – Effectively the end of the DirectAdmin Legacy License

    This is worth something. - goodwill - an end to all of these topics - free marketing - greater conversion rates if things DO keep working but in time you miss out on cool new things - little to no chance of offering a big slice to a new player - happier community - simply keeping numbers over...

    July 2026 – Effectively the end of the DirectAdmin Legacy License

    Everything is different if you buy 100 of anything, well maybe not with paperclips. My point is that legacy licenses also meant keeping that user base 'DA hooked'. Might not have the best revenu, but it prevented them from shopping somewhere between free and 350 a year, in the end this had a...

    July 2026 – Effectively the end of the DirectAdmin Legacy License

    In the past, we provided DirectAdmin licenses to customers primarily to reduce our own management overhead. Effectively, every VPS of around 50 EURO included a license, which allowed us to bring the server under our (cheaper) managed service. If a customer later decided to purchase their own...

    n8n

    n8n install is pretty easy and straight forward. It uses docker so it might open ports you previously closed with e.g. csf. Nmap the n8n server after you're done installing and make sure you always have credentials setup for any used test databases. I know this should be obvious, but...

    July 2026 – Effectively the end of the DirectAdmin Legacy License

    A couple of years ago I used the DA hooks to mirror the creation/removal of databases and users to a remote galera cluster. This might work with a second mariadb instance on the same server.

    Backup restore not available

    Admin backups are for the 'admins' indeed. Users can make their own backups, which they can restore themselves.

    How can we save all email traffic and other things from clients (e-evidence law)

    Many hoster get a few of those a year already. It's nothing else than when the law contacts you because they want to know who is selling fake shit on an online marketplace. Do whatever you think is best for your company. I'm not telling you what to do, mate, nor do I want to fight over a thing...

    How can we save all email traffic and other things from clients (e-evidence law)

    I was born with that option. I can not give what I don't have. The core of this law is (at least for regular webhosters) (19) This Regulation should regulate the gathering of data stored by a service provider at the time of receipt (=save what you have at that moment and don't delete it for...

    How can we save all email traffic and other things from clients (e-evidence law)

    Well, imho it's clear enough. You can receive 2 types of orders. A preservation order in where they tell you to freeze your logs at that time. Not to log any extra, not to give them stuff, just make sure you don't delete the logs if your backup retention is less than the timespan they 'order'...

    ssh-keys management

    No, that would be 'fun' (well, maybe with willow), but I just wouldn't use a single ssh key on a macbook to access all my servers because hackers don't need keys if they can snatch/compromise/malware the macbook with them on it. There's a huge difference between how to deal with ssh access from...

    Crons not working

    It's always best practice to add the full path to anything in your cron. If for soms reason your path of wget changed, it won't run anymore.
