How do I clean up localdomains?

Hi,

Is there a way of cleaning up localdomains so it only contains domains that exist on the server?

I'm trying to add mail domains to a mail appliance via an API and I need localdomains to be correct because I'm using it as the data source. I just did my first run and noticed domains were added that do not exist as primary accounts or parked / addon domains.

Any advice welcome.

 

Ok I worked out that this is only a problem on one server where we have used the "Add a DNS Zone" option in WHM. The domains are not hosted on the server, we just added zone files for them and forgot to untick the "This server will act as the primary MX" box.

Is there any other domain list on the cpanel server? i.e one that might contain hosted domains only?

Would be nice to have an up to date list perhaps by using the cpanel user data to compile it rather than checking the parked domains and subdomains lists in WHM manually.

It seems strange to me that the only way to ge a full list of hosted domains on the server is to download the CSV file for the accounts list then also click "List parked domains" and write them down, then click "List subdomains" and write down the addon domains.

Any way of getting this info all in one file?

 

Thank you that is very useful.

 

Do you know anyone who could write such a script?

I'd like to compare the info in..

/var/cpanel/users
localdomains and remotedomains
named.conf
httpd.conf
and any other files that might be relevent.

The purpose is to hilight discrepencies and produce an output that shows what domains are listed in those files on the server that should not be there.

I'm sure on a small scale this doesnt really matter but when you have a large number of servers and "per domain" licensing of some products, it is important to make sure that the data source in use is clean.

Looking for someone who understands cpanel and can write scripts like this easily. Obviously will pay.
