    Hello,

    I tried to search, but I didn't find it. I'm we can do that easely.

    Can I create a "template" server configuration and then, copy this configurations to other server (i.e.: Tweak, Preference, ...), so I only have to set hostname, install 3rd party stuff (like CSF) and run EasyApache (with saved profile) when I build a new server instant of going tab by tab... ?

    Thanks!

    Make a copy of /var/cpanel/cpanel.config & save it somewhere

    upload it to your new server & run
    /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/bin/whostmgr2 --updatetweaksettings
    after you install it


    for csf grab the latest copy & untar it replace the defualt csf.conf with your custom csf.conf. tar it backup & use that csf.tgz to use for future installs

    Hum... it seem to copy only the "tweak" settings. Not "Ftp Server Configuration" (like, I put Anonymous to "no" and it's still "yes") and stuff like that! :(

    You can also sync these configuration files manually from the source server. Sync'ing the following files should cause no issues
