Hi, I installed the Virtualmin (GPL) module in webmin and Servers -> Virtualmin Virtual Servers (GPL) -> Add new virtual server, owned by: <New user>. There is an option of "Server configuration template" that I can assign to the reseller but how can I allow the reseller to define and edit his own templates and limits for the packages he wants to sell? Your help is appreciated. -- Munzir Taha Telecommunications and Electronics Engineer Maintainer of Fedora Arabic Translation Project https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-trans-ar Maintainer of the OpenBugs project page at http://www.arabic-fedora.org/munzir/OpenBugs.html Master CIW Designer, ICDL, MOUS, Linux+, LPI 101 Riyadh, SA |

Thanks Jamie for your reply. Then may be I asked the wrong question. I don= 't=20 care whether it's "Server Templates" or something else.

Hi Munzir, Are you using the GPL or Pro version of Virtualmin there? The Pro version has a 'reseller' accounts, which operate at a level above domain owners, and can set quotas and bandwidth limits for their resold domains, plus configure all settings in those domains. - Jamie |

Hi Munzir, At the moment, Virtualmin doesn't differentiate between 'templates' and 'plans', which means that it is not possible for resellers to create their own plans. However, that would certainly be possible to implement, and is a very good idea.. I will look into this for a future release. - Jamie |

Hi M, THe reseller cannot create his own templates as of yet but you can create some generic ones (resell1, resell2, etc) or assign them to the reseller specifically. The reseller currently doesn't use the API either but it's on the feature request. You'll find this reseller much more secure than the WHM that cpanel has. As I understand it a cpanel reseller can shut down the entire cpanel network. Dan From: "Munzir Taha (=D9=85=D9=86=D8=B0=D8=B1 =D8=B7=D9=87)" <= mun...@gm...> To: web...@li...

Hi, Are you sure you're in VM GPL? I checked my 3.31 version and found nothing for a reseller. In the VMPro version you have a specific reseller module for creating a reseller specifying limits for the reseller himself, then the reseller logos in and creates virtual servers, assigns IPs and limits to the degree that you've permitted. It sounds more like you're trying to create virtual servers to resell to someone else and true, they would have no permissions to adjust their own settings. It sounds more like you want the features of VMPro. The reseller still can't create his own templates (I just created some generic reseller templates and hid the admin ones from the reseller) then the reseller can set the limits he wants from within the server creation module on the fly.
