rmagic.pl

Dude, this rmagic.pl thing is like a real B*.

Its eating up my server and making the load averages WAY above normal.

Is there a way to not let rmagic run?

Thanks,

yea, i saw all those posts... i did the search and stuff. Just thought it might be nice to be able to choose if we run rmagic or not before it was implemented since it eats resources.

Please teach me how to turn off rmagic.pl safely.

Define safely?
It\'s running much less dangerously now to tell you the truth.

Right off I\'d do a locate for \"rmagic.pl\" and then chmod 0000 rmagic.pl
and chattr +i rmagic.pl

That\'s basically the mean way.
Safe way would be to take out the references to the running of the script in the cpanel frontend (/usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend), under Analog, this takes approximately 8483 times longer than the mean way.

:D
