UPDATE: (Jan 18, 2010): Please note that as of the latest release ISPConfig 2.2.35 software you dont have to install ioncube or soap, so these step are old and it only works for ISPConfig 2.2.14 software
####################################################

sure, these are my notes:

if you already have ispconfig already installed, but want to start fresh, click here to learn how to remove ispconfig if you are re-installing ispconfig, after you've completed the re-install, make sure to reset your certficate click here

command:


command: download lates stable, in my case ISPConfig-2.2.14.tar.gz

command: untar (unpack) tar file:


Now i emable xml in compile file


Once i am nano, i hit these keys:
Hit: Contrl + w
Search: xml
Now nano will take you to line 129 at this point: disable-libxml and remove the following:

--disable-libxml
--disable-xml ${WITH_ZLIB_DIR}
--disable-xmlreader
--disable-xmlwriter
--disable-simplexml


Once you have removed all the above, hit control+x to exit out and say yes to save at the prompt " save modified buffer (ANSWERING No WILL DESTROY CHANGES) ?
say type y for yes and hit return (Enter on keyboard) and hit ruturn again the the prompt: File Name to Write: /root/install_ispconfig/compile_aps/compile
now you shoul be back at the shell

command: change directory to ispconfig_install


command: run setup script file


go through the normal setup
for example these are the prompts i choose:

2 (en)
y
y (license)
1 (standard)
y (postfix)
y proftpd
STEP 0: RSA
STEP 2: (your cert infO: country,state,city,company etc...)
STEP 3: 3
STEP 5: again, your cert info: country,state,city,company etc..
STEP 6: 3
STEP 7: n
SETP 8: n
default text: [the administrator of that system] Enter

once you have completed the installation steps:


now login and change password.

install phpmyadmin plugin

install the plugin remote through the update manager at, you can get it here:
http://www.ispconfig.org/remoting_plugin.htm

once you've installed it through the update manager, to to Tools tab and click on User under Remoting, then click on [Add] link.
then create username and password (leave ip blank) and select all the permission choices:

then click on save button:

Now go back to your shell (im using ssh connection)
command: changed to root directory


download ioncube


once it has completed dowloading then untar it with this command:


Now copy the ioncube loder you just unpacked to the ispconfig directory with this command:


Now you can confirm that infact you copied ioncube_loader_lin_5.2.so in the ispconfig directory by sending this command:

NOW FOR THE FUN PART -----------------

in my case i have a laptop with windows xp on it, and i have installed php server for my testing, so my laptop will be my client(remote server) and i have another computer where i have installed ispconfig in fedora core 5.

Make sure you have CURL enabled, i had to enable CURL in my laptop because it was comment out. CLICK HERE ON HOW TO ENABLE CURL

download the example files from this link:
http://www.ispconfig.org/downloads/remoting_example.zip

unzip remoting_example.zip and put the file in your server where you can open them with your browser, in my case it was: http://localhost/ispconfig/remote_example

now create a file to add a reseller. copy and paste this code and save it as add-reseller.php:


NOTE: Make sure that you change the ip address and the username and password in the this add-reseller.php file in order for SOAP to do its thing...


now open add-reseller.php from your remote computer (i my case, my laptop) and it will add a reseller called wallpaperama to your ispconfig remote server.

there are other things you can do like list edit add users websites and more, all you have to do is use each function according to what you want. the functions can be found in the test.php file that came with remoting_example.zip

oh, if you want to show the array of the reseller you've just added with add-reseller.php you can create this code and save it as show-resellers.php

show-resellers.php

there are some bugs you need to fix: open ispconfig_kunde.lib.php and edit these lines: find:

                                ) values (
								
                                1,
                                '".$reseller_group."',
                                '".$tree_id."',
                                'i',
                                ".$this->kunde_doctype_id.",
                                '1',
                                'kunde.gif',
                                '',
                                '".$doc_id."',
                                '".addslashes($params["kunde_title"])."'
                                )";

change to:

                                ) values (
								
                                '1',
                                '".$reseller_group."',
                                '".$tree_id."',
                                'i',
                                '".$this->kunde_doctype_id."',
                                '1',
                                'kunde.gif',
                                '',
                                '".$doc_id."',
                                '".addslashes($params["kunde_title"])."'
                                )";

Basically add an apostrophe on 1, and on .$this->kunde_doctype_id. without this change, the remote plugin was not entering any data in the isp_nodes table.

can you show how to change enter the IP address of the ISPConfig web

thanks
