any eta when www5's ftp will be fixed again? before the outage, the ftp login delay was fixed; before the fix, there existed a ~12 second delay before it would display the motd/welcome message. this delay is now back :cry: this occurance is not isolated with my isp/network as i've had other friends ...

thanks

After logging into cPanel and clicking Backups -> Download a SQL DB Backup, i get the following error in the gz file. mysqldump: Got error: 1045: Access denied for user: 'union@localhost' (Using password: YES) when trying to connect ‹ ïR4? this error occurs in all mysql databases i try. on www5

how about a freeware mailing list like triangle solution's PHP Mulitple Newsletters. it might not be the best out there but it looks like it can be done (googled it).

is/will there be an option to opt-in for maintenance newsletters? most of us probably don't regularly (read: daily) monitor the forums to keep ourselves up-to-date on current server related issues. It'd be really great to get the updates via email as we cannot subscribe to whole forum categories.

i found the problem. ssl login was causing the .lastlogin forced as localhost. if i login via non-ssl, it works fine

no dice? it didn't work? i saw .lastlogin have your ip and when i refreshed the page, it worked. did you edit the file manually?

grrr. why does it work for you ;p (watching .lastlogin)

login PM'd

i found out that the script is forcing the hostname to be localhost. i edited the file (.lastlogin) to say localhostzz. refreshing the page shows localhostzz. upon logging out and logging back in reverts to localhost

guess mine wont make it as i have 0 artistic skill hehe. coding backend is a lot easier :p

i switched that account to default and it still shows up as localhost. another account, which uses bluelagoon, has the same localhost deal.

not too sure what's going on

i'll see what happens when i switch it from cPanelX to something else.

you said i will have to look at the code, does that mean we're allowed to make custom scripts? where do we store the templates?

nope. i was putty'ing though it earlier, it still says localhost. pretty strange

ssh motd shows the proper "Last Login: date ip" but cpanel doesnt.

[edit]
found what could be the problem. the .lastlogin file in the account's home dir wasnt getting updated

it'd be a good idea if i typed in the right filename eh ;p (switched it to my other domain to avoid dns problems)

so you're using the web-based ssh? thats normal as it's logging in from ... the local host :). SSH just sees the web interface connecting, it doesen't pass through to your home ip if thats what you're thinking. actually, the web based ssh doesnt work (it says to use ssh1 than ssh2). i'm talking abo...

>Logs into where from/through where?
their client account via https://www5.pcdc.net:2083/

i'm actually still testing it w/ my home computer. instead of showing my ip, it is displaying localhost.
