packages editing...possible?

[Ley]

I want to change the packages because i forgot to add an dedicated IP to some...can this be done somewhere? as whm does not have this feature to add dedicated ip to a package.

Packages do not specify whether the account is created with a dedicated ip or not, that is only done during the account creation process or after the fact by changing the ip of an account.

Actually, there is an IP checkbox which is supposed to assign any NEW account added to that package its own IP address if there is one available:

Package Name	 	Quota	Mega Bytes
Shell Access	
Max Ftp Accounts	
Max Email Accounts	
Max Email Lists	
Max SQL Databases	
Max Sub Domains	
Max Parked Domains	
Max Addon Domains	
Ip		Cgi Access	
Frontpage Extentions	
Bandwidth Limit	MegaBytes
Cpanel Theme	
Feature List	
Note: Packages added with the prefix '<username>_' (no quotes) can only be seen by <username>.

And yes, you can edit a package in WHM, but I believe doing so will not automatically assign an account a dedicated IP address. You'll have to do that manually.

Ah, you are right. I missed that.

[Ley]

Aric is right, but if you do not check this box when creating the package you cannot edit it in a later stage, this is what i mean. I need to edit a few packages that did not have this boxed checked to have this box checked..how i do this? i need to edit the package in shell? and what to change?

[Aric1]

Edit the package to have the IP box checked if you haven't already. This will solve the problem for new accounts.

Now select Account Functions --> Change Site's IP Address and manually change each client you need to change to their own IP.

thats the problem, i dont see this option after the package is created..see the screenshot...u see it has the NO from when the package is created..but not a box to tick it now..

I am unsure if this would cause any problems so I wouldn't highly recommend jumping in and doing so but... have you tried renaming or deleting the current package and making a new package with the same settings and name but with it's own ip?

[Ley]

No i havent tried...im not sure what happends if i remove/rename a package to accounts that have this package...maybe something will be heavily ******up..

[Ley]

i edited the packages manually in /var/cpanel/packages and the ip shows YES now..fixed i guess.
