Any problems post below and i will edit this post with the fixes

login form idea...

hey fellow DA users...

ok... when using a remote login page with a username and password field that posts to the DA login form, some users are becoming confused if their login fails... the reason is that they get redirected to a *unfamilar* DA login page...

so why not make the DA login accept an optional hidden field with a URL that redirects the user back to the remote login page if the login fails...

does my attempt at an explanation make sense here...?
am I the only one that thinks this would be useful?

here's an example of what I'm trying to say:

<form action="http://domain.com:2222/CMD_LOGIN" method="post" name="login">

<input name="username" type="text" class="tablestyle" value="username" maxlength="26">

<input name="password" type="password" class="tablestyle" value="password">

<input name="FAIL_URL" type="hidden" value="http://www.domain.com?DA_LOGIN=FAILED">

<input name="Submit" type="submit" class="buttonstyle" value="Login">

</form>

Thanks,

Just to let you guys know, the FAIL_URL option has been added a while back.

John

DirectAdmin Support · Aug 19, 2003

LOGOUT_URL will be available for 1.192. It's function is similar to FAIL_URL except that it is used when the user logs out. *Ooo.. Ahh..*

John

WebrulerHosting · Apr 14, 2004

Where could I define the URL where users go to when they sign out?

DirectAdmin Support · Apr 14, 2004

You pass it with LOGOUT_URL the same way you pass FAIL_URL (see above form)

hi folks,

New DA owner, was looking for a way to create my own login and found this thread.

Unfortunately using the listed code in a previous message here, on a failed login the page goes to the default DA login.

I am using the latest as of this date: 1.22.4

any ideas?

here is the code that is placed within a normal html page
---
<form action="http://ehome.net:2222/CMD_LOGIN" method="post" name="login">

<input name="username" type="text" class="tablestyle" value="username" maxlength="26">

<input name="password" type="password" class="tablestyle" value="password">

<input name="FAIL_URL" type="hidden" value="http://www.ehome.net/test.html">
<input name="LOGOUT_URL" type="hidden" value="http://www.ehome.net">

<input name="Submit" type="submit" class="buttonstyle" value="Login">

</form>

can this form add a domain field. so users will be redirect to http://customerdomain:2222 and login.

jmstacey · Oct 18, 2004

It would just be a matter of adding that form field and then modifying the action to use the domain the user entered adding the :2222 to the end as well as the username and password from the other fields.

dannygoh · Oct 18, 2004

hopefully some can help with the code.

dollah · Oct 29, 2004

The same story for me here

DirectAdmin Support · Apr 25, 2007

http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=61
I've just tested that code (in the id=61 link) to double check it works, and I didn't have any problems.
Wrong pass and logout both forward correctly.

Multiple Server Login Form

Hi Guys,

I've seen few people wondering how to get their clients to login to the correct server if they are running multiple DA servers.

Here's what I've done. It's not exactly the coolest or best script in the world, but it works for what I'm doing. You can figure out how to do your own form validation. I simply make sure all three fields are filled in before the form is submitted.

The script will 'build' the form action when the submit button is pressed to create a form action like this...

http://www.somedomain.com:2222/CMD_LOGIN.

This way if the user has websites on either of my servers, they login to the correct server.

Cheers!!

Place this between the <head> </head> tags.

Code:

<script language="javascript">
function checkForm() {

    document.wcc.action = "http://www." + document.wcc.domain.value + ":2222/CMD_LOGIN";
    
    
    if (document.wcc.domain.value = "") {
    	alert("Please enter your domain name")
    	document.wcc.domain.focus();
    	return false;
    }
    
    if (document.wcc.username.value = "") {
        alert("Please enter your user name")
        document.wcc.username.focus();
        return false;
    }
    
    if (document.wcc.password.value = "") {
    	alert("Please enter your password")
    	document.wcc.password.focus();
    	return false;
    }  
    
}
</script>

Place this where you want your login form to be.

Code:

<form method="post" name="wcc" id="wcc" onSubmit="checkForm();">                                                
<input type="hidden" name="referer" value="/" />
<input type="hidden" name="LOGOUT_URL" value="http://www.mydomain.co.nz" />
<input type="hidden" name="FAIL_URL" value="http://www.mydomain.co.nz/login_failed.html" />
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="3" cellpadding="0">
    <tr>
	<td colspan="2"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
		<tr>
		    <td><strong>Control Centre Login </strong></td>
		    <td><a href="http://www.mydomain.co.nz/help.html">?</a></td>
		</tr>
	</table></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
	<td>Domain</td>
	<td><input name="domain" type="text" id="domain" size="15" /></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
	<td>UserID</td>
	<td><input name="username" type="text" id="username" size="15" /></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
	<td>Pass</td>
	<td><input name="password" type="password" id="password" size="15" /></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
	<td> </td>
	<td><input type="submit" name="login" id="login" value="Login"></td>
    </tr>
</table>
</form>

Make sure you change the values for FAIL_URL and LOGOUT_URL.

Hope it helps.

Cheers!!
