System Requirements 
 
Make sure that you complete the following tasks before you start the installation process: 
 
1. Setup Hostname 
This hostname cannot be the same as any domain that is on your server (for example, if example.com is a domain on your server, use hostname.example.com as your fully qualified hostname). 
 
You can use the following command for hostname setup eg. srv1.hackthesec.co.in 
 
hostname srv1.example.com 
2. Setup Server IP addresses 
Define additional IP address, subnet address, and default gateway IP address for your server — your service provider can provide you with this information. 
 
3. Software Requirements 
You must have a clean/fresh installation of supported operating systems: 
CentOS 6, RedHat 6 or CloudLinux 6, MINIMAL installation and English version only! 
CentOS 7 is NOT supported. 
 
4. Hardware Requirements 
32 bit operating systems require a minimum of 512 MB RAM 
64 bit operating systems require a minimum of 1024 MB RAM (recommended) 
 
Recommended System: 4 GB+ RAM so you would have the full functionality such as Anti-virus scan of emails.

HOW TO INSTALL CWP 
 
 
Follow steps below to setup CentOS Web Panel on your server: 
 
Step 1 – Login to your server as root or as user with sudo privilege: 
 
Step 2 – Go to /usr/local/src directory and download CWP installer package there: 
<pre style="background: rgb(68, 68, 68); border-radius: 3px; border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); color: white; font-family: "Courier 10 Pitch", Courier, monospace; font-size: 15px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-top: 30px; max-width: 100%; overflow-x: auto; overflow-y: hidden; padding: 18px 20px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: normal;">cd /usr/local/src
wget http://centos-webpanel.com/cwp-latest</pre>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHCumkp8N-EKNmJ431ei3V3clDBLB5dOiXGEkVukFp8AuA1DkTgPzgkXZu0eo02G_UWvJW2IqvQxdpaWEB_WC9xIoE6NbIIA8-Zk4Vxi1o0pZrdbG3Y3W9hzsvhmTQ_7cyN-eodwOzKZax/s1600/cwp_download.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHCumkp8N-EKNmJ431ei3V3clDBLB5dOiXGEkVukFp8AuA1DkTgPzgkXZu0eo02G_UWvJW2IqvQxdpaWEB_WC9xIoE6NbIIA8-Zk4Vxi1o0pZrdbG3Y3W9hzsvhmTQ_7cyN-eodwOzKZax/s1600/cwp_download.png" /></a></div>
 
Step 3 – Once downloaded, issue one simple command below to start the installer: 
<pre style="background: rgb(68, 68, 68); border-radius: 3px; border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); color: white; font-family: "Courier 10 Pitch", Courier, monospace; font-size: 15px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-top: 30px; max-width: 100%; overflow-x: auto; overflow-y: hidden; padding: 18px 20px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: normal;">sh cwp-latest</pre>
The whole process is fully automatic. 
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSopw4SkzWe3Riuuzsz4sTRkinxzg3T2tQJHOss3rsWUG3oT5LWdHnoBx1yCMmgmt9eruHb3iFQ7nbCgv_j8iVsv1vTy0KbZfEg82frn6Rbs6sekewbh_4CQgOxRPaJRDr5LaIYF9p_-Ct/s1600/cwp-install-process.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSopw4SkzWe3Riuuzsz4sTRkinxzg3T2tQJHOss3rsWUG3oT5LWdHnoBx1yCMmgmt9eruHb3iFQ7nbCgv_j8iVsv1vTy0KbZfEg82frn6Rbs6sekewbh_4CQgOxRPaJRDr5LaIYF9p_-Ct/s1600/cwp-install-process.jpg" /></a></div>
The CWP installation progress will take some times because several software will be compiled from source (especially PHP) for improved performance, security and flexibility. In my case it is almost like installing WHM/cPanel.Once the process is done, you’ll see something like this: 
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkppCekvY8ZZ1HJ79of1ohnaCKjLCcLOlyg0DvBBYrku-jq5nDkiw2HerQBKt4yWKg3FsdeQfdVztT3_DhfQLcF1vgZlGQS1zTYyrgiFSWtkZl9RkUA_kTbH5IkuWpuJcCDuhTCcZiC-nA/s1600/cwp-installed.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkppCekvY8ZZ1HJ79of1ohnaCKjLCcLOlyg0DvBBYrku-jq5nDkiw2HerQBKt4yWKg3FsdeQfdVztT3_DhfQLcF1vgZlGQS1zTYyrgiFSWtkZl9RkUA_kTbH5IkuWpuJcCDuhTCcZiC-nA/s1600/cwp-installed.jpg" /></a></div>
 
Step 4 – Now hit Enter on your keyboard and your server should reboot automatically. Next time you try to login to your server via SSH, the display will be different. You will now see CWP welcome message. 
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjasChe2omZRknNfe_J0yitTgF1TyuoL4Qu90yMEXGfUh1Sj76zAOeh9TKNBkibQymExrUNUXraoajGTKC6lMSqHnH_6UTiBzVrbXm3mAGZYBTfCisNy2p7vY6XgLZPHMSQHeYx69jOTiB5/s1600/cwp-ssh.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjasChe2omZRknNfe_J0yitTgF1TyuoL4Qu90yMEXGfUh1Sj76zAOeh9TKNBkibQymExrUNUXraoajGTKC6lMSqHnH_6UTiBzVrbXm3mAGZYBTfCisNy2p7vY6XgLZPHMSQHeYx69jOTiB5/s1600/cwp-ssh.jpg" /></a></div>
Step 5 – Open up your favorite web browser (Firefox, Chrome, etc) and open your newly installed CWP admin GUI at one of these URLs: 
 
Log in to your CWP server using the link provided by the installer on your server 
CentOS WebPanel Admin GUI at http://SERVER-IP:2030/ 
Username: root 
Password: your root password 
 
- Setup nameservers 
- Setup shared ip (must be your public IP address) 
- Setup at least one hosting package (or edit default package) 
- Setup root email 
& now you are ready to host domains…

CONFIG_rotation_weekly=35
CONFIG_rotation_monthly=150
CONFIG_mysql_dump_port=3306
CONFIG_mysql_dump_compression='gzip'</pre>
</div>
<div>
<div>
Once you are done with editing, save the configuration file. All settings are optional and there is description for all of them, so it is best to check the configuration file for more information about the settings of AutoMySQLBackup.</div>
<div>
 </div>
<div>
Create a directory for the MySQL backups. This is the directory we set as ‘backup_dir’ in the configuration file.</div>
<div>
<pre style="background: rgb(68, 68, 68); border-radius: 3px; border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); color: white; font-family: "Courier 10 Pitch", Courier, monospace; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-top: 30px; max-width: 100%; overflow-x: auto; overflow-y: hidden; padding: 18px 20px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: normal;">mkdir /var/backup</pre>
</div>

Atop – monitor system resources in Linux

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Atop – monitor system resources in Linux 
Atop is an ASCII full-screen performance monitor for Linux that is capable of reporting the activity of all processes (even if processes have finished during the interval), daily logging of system and process activity for long-term analysis, highlighting overloaded system resources by using colors, etc. At regular intervals, it shows system-level activity related to the CPU, memory, swap, disks (including LVM) and network layers, and for every process (and thread) it shows e.g. the CPU utilization, memory growth, disk utilization, priority, username, state, and exit code. 
In combination with the optional kernel module netatop, it even shows network activity per process/thread. 
 
The command atop has some major advantages compared to other performance monitoring tools: 
 
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Resource consumption by all processes</li>
<li>Utilization of all relevant resources</li>
<li>Permanent logging of resource utilization</li>
<li>Highlight critical resources</li>
<li>Scalable window width</li>
<li>Resource consumption by individual threads</li>
<li>Watch activity only</li>
<li>Watch deviations only</li>
<li>Accumulated process activity per user</li>
<li>Accumulated process activity per program</li>
<li>Network activity per process</li>
</ul>
<div>

Cacti allows a user to poll services at predetermined intervals and graph the resulting data. It is generally used to graph time-series data of metrics such as CPU load and network bandwidth utilization. A common usage is to monitor network traffic by polling a network switch or router interface via Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). 
 
The front end can handle multiple users, each with their own graph sets, so it is sometimes used by web hosting providers (especially dedicated server,virtual private server, and collocation providers) to display bandwidth statistics for their customers. It can be used to configure the data collection itself, allowing certain setups to be monitored without any manual configuration of RRDtool. Cacti can be extended to monitor any source via shell scripts and executables. 
 
Cacti can use one of two back ends: "cmd.php", a PHP script suitable for smaller installations, or "Spine" (formerly Cactid), a C-based poller which can scale to thousands of hosts. 
Install Apache, MariaDb php SNMP and RRDtool 
 
Login in your Linux machine as root and run following command to install apache, php, MariaDB:
