Can we get some help in scripting with cpanel hooks ? We are trying to do a pattern match while creating addon/parked domains

Which type of hooks are you trying to use?

There is some documentation on this available at:

Hooking into cPanel Functionality

Seeing code always helps

Hi Matt,

We are trying for a hook associated with addon domain/subdomain creation. The purpose is to do a pattern match of commonly created phishing domains like wellsfargo, bankofamerica etc.

Hi mynameanu,

I think what Matt was getting at was this: There are 3 different types of 'hooks' within the WHM/cPanel product (itemized in the link he provided).

For your project, you will want to use either a 'function hook' or a 'Custom Event Handler'.

In this post here, http://forums.cpanel.net/f42/event-h...tml#post686090, I've describe the difference between the two. The thread eventually focuses on how to write a function hook.

Check that out, and the documentation link Matt provided. We'll be happy to answer any specific questions you have.

Best Regards,
