Hello ,

I don't want users to be able to delete there main domain, I use WHMCS and users would delete there domain and add a new one then the domain displayed in WHMCS would not match the actual domain name. The first thing I tried is to customize the Evolution Skin and disable Domain Setup but this only removes the function from the main menu see https://prntscr.com/ot6ce1
But the function is still accessible for the user in multiple ways for example the widget see https://prntscr.com/ot6cof gives access see https://prnt.sc/ot6inx

I probably need to use the Global never_commands described here https://www.directadmin.com/features.php?id=2313
Can someone tell what the command for that will be or even better to a list of all commands that can be used here and on the on user basis deny/allow commands from here https://www.directadmin.com/features.php?id=1171

And if I deny it globally can the admin user still remove a domain? Ideally I would want to deny that function only for users but allow it for admin and resellers.

Thanks in advance.
 
No I don't think so, or it's wrongly explained there:
users_can_add_remove_domains=1
will block the ability to delete any domain.

users_can_add_remove_domains=2
will block the ability to add or delete any domain.

It says *any* not only the main domain.
Users should be able to delete their domains or add new ones. Just not delete the main domain, that's something different.
 

Yes this does work but if I use it globally in the directadmin.conf it means the admin or reseller can't delete a domain either correct?
So if I as admin would want to delete a domain I first have to override the the default in the directadmin.conf by adding in the user.conf the line users_can_add_remove_domains=0 to remove/change the domain and then remove the line from the user.conf again?

Is there a list of values we can use in the user.conf and is there a template for the user.conf where we can add values so that they will be present up on creation?

Thanks for the quick answers it is appreciated.

No because at the bottom there is a link to:
https://www.directadmin.com/features.php?id=2384

And if you read there, it says you can excempt admin and/or reseller by adding values.
It says:
(To exempt both, add 16+32 to your value)
where both is admin and reseller.
In that case it seems to me (please correct me if I'm wrong) the value should be:
1 - block everyone to delete
So 1+16+32=49 so
Code:
users_can_add_remove_domains=49
in directadmin.conf would deny only users to add or delete *any* domains globally.
So this does not apply only to the main domain.

SMtalk please correct me if I'm wrong.

Yes I saw that link and when you put 49 as value the reseller and admin can delete domains but only there own domains not domains of the users/customers that they own, I was hoping to have a way that that was possible but I am satisfied with this solution, if I need to delete a domain of a user/customer I can temporarily add

Code:
users_can_add_remove_domains=0

To the user.conf
