EDIT: July 6, 2019: Please use the newer convertor created by Martynas, as it's updated to use newer features and can be integrated to be called right within DA itself:

==============================================================
This tool works by converting cPanel user backups to DirectAdmin user backups. This tool is designed to read all data directly from the cPanel user backup files; therefore, this tool can be executed on either the cPanel or DirectAdmin server.
This tool will covert cPanel backups created by both
- the /scripts/pkgacct script, and
- cPanel's 'Full Backup' GUI tool.
Latest available version (as of 03 March 2013):
http://www.pusathosting.com/file/da.cpanel.import.9.4.tar.gz
See posts #6 and #7 of this thread.
INSTRUCTIONS
1/ Download and extract the version URL (from above) that you wish to use. (wget and tar xzf)
2/ Create import and export directories for the tool to use. (mkdir import export)
3/ Copy your cPanel user backups into the import directory.
4/ Edit defaults.conf to match the DA server you will be restoring to. The only fields you must change are the IP and name server fields. The tool will not work if you fail to do this!
5/ Execute perl da.cpanel.import.pl and follow the on-screen instructions (which will duplicate the steps here to a degree).
6/ After the tool is finished converting (or as it completes each individual user), move your new DA user backups from the export directory to any DA /home/RESELLER/user_backups directory*
7/ Restore the DA user backups in DA's reseller-level Manage User Backups tool.
That's it!
*If the tool is being executed on a cPanel server, you can optionally have the tool automatically transfer your new DA user backups (after all conversion is complete) to a remote server.
ITEMS ACTUALLY CONVERTED
As of the current beta version, the following should convert:
OTHER NOTES & SUPPORT
This tool is provided at no cost and without warranty.
If you have questions, concerns, or run into problems, please reply to this thread.

Good luck & Happy converting!
