    It would require modifying cpanel scripts and then locking those scripts from being updated.

    Not recommended unless you a very comfortable with shell commands, like diff, vi, etc... As every once and while you would need to update these scripts with cPanel's changes.

    You can edit these values in the wwwacct file in /scripts.

    yep, but when parking a domian it still uses 86400

    i tried modifying park script
    but i didn't do it.


    i did a grep for that value on the script directory
    and there's no mention to that value, yet it still uses it for parking domains.

    Any ideas?

    It`s in the following 3 three scripts;

    adddns Line 104
    wwwacct Line 1119
    park Line 132

    Check those.
