How to Reset Account Setup Date

[Antonimo]

I wish to reset the account set up date on several accounts.

I cannot find the answer to this anywhere, so is it even possible? If so, how?

There is no means by which to change this via the WHM interface. However, there may be a way to do it manually with root shell access.

You can edit the parameter value of STARTDATE in /var/cpanel/users/USERNAME to change the start date. I am not sure that how its value is composed, someone from cPanel staff or anyone who knows the format can describe its format.

Indeed. The format is: STARTDATE=1125594754 which translates to 05 Sep 01 10:12 in list accounts page.

But would changing this there break anything else like stats or something? Not sure how much is relied on for this date if anything. This would be a good thing to know about for accounts transfered from other servers.

Si lo que quieren es cambiar a la fecha actual a las 00:00 horas, ejecutan:

date -d 'May 18 2010 00:00:00' +%s

eso les da la fecha exacta en formato EPOC: 1274158800 y este valor es el que cambian en el parametero STARTDATE,

Para hacer lo inverso, saber cual es la fecha exacta a partir de un EPOC, entonces ejecutan:

date -d '1970-01-01 1274158800 sec'
