BUG: 'View Bandwidth Usage' excludes Addon domains?

[andren]

We have a very strange issue. WHMs 'View Bandwidth Usage' shows very low BW use for users that do most of their traffic through addon domains.

For instance one user is listed as ~250MB but has done over 25GB via an addon domain.

Anyone else seeing the issue?

I've got a better one for you. I just found out that users who link to files like this:

http://ipaddress/~username/file

...don't get counted at all!


I just had a user suck down over 500gb of bandwidth this way and his account showed "0" usage.

Anyone know how to stop this sort of thing? It can be devastating to a webhost if it got heavily abused.

Just use the mod_userdir tweak in WHM -> Security -> Security Center -> Apache mod_userdir Tweak to enable/disable this functionality.

Sorry about that. After searching some more on here I found that and enabled it.
