Subdomain Script

up up up
i need too

 

Use Wildcard DNS combined with php scripting. That removes the need for subdomains to be created using cPanel.

 

Would there possibly be a sample or a website i could view to learn how do do this dns operation?

 

Here is the code that I use to add sudmains through php:

PHP:

<?

include ('../cpinfo.php');
$authstr = "$username:$password";
$pass = base64_encode($authstr);

//Here we open a socket to the cpanel

$socket2 = fsockopen("www.mydomain.com",2082);
if(!$socket2)
{
print('Socket error');
echo "<BR>There was an error while setting up the account.  Please let support@mydomain.com know the above error";
exit();
}


//Next, we add a subdomain with $ustring

$indom = "GET /frontend/xlagoon/subdomain/doadddomain.html?domain=$web_username&rootdomain=mydomain.com\r\n HTTP/1.0\r\nHost:$udomain\r\nAuthorization: Basic $pass\r\n\r\n";


fputs($socket2,$indom);
while (!feof($socket2)) {
        fgets ($socket2,128);
        }
fclose($socket2);



?>



And of course cpinfo.php contains my cpanel username and password, which is located above my public_html directory for security.

With this particular code it just gives you a blank screen...at the end you could just add a forwarder to the page you want.

 

where are you submitting the subdomain name, pass and foldername?

like what varriables would be assign etc? im lost there.

 

For the username and password I have a file called "cpinfo.php" that is stored above my public_html directory. Then I included that file and use the variables from it. This is for security reasons. The "cpinfo.php" file would just be this:

PHP:

<?
$udomain = "mydomain.com";
$pass = "mypassword";
?>

I appologize about the subdomain variable part.  I forgot that on my particular script I have stored the subdomain as a session variable that I collected early on in a form.

You would need this:

[php]
$subdomain = "mysubdomainName" 

or if you are getting that info from a form:
$subdomain = $_POST[field_name];

and change this line to match:

$indom = "GET /frontend/xlagoon/subdomain/doadddomain.html?domain=$subdomain&rootdomain=mydomain.com\r\n HTTP/1.0\r\nHost:$udomain\r\nAuthorization: Basic $pass\r\n\r\n";



 

Ok, just in case the last post was confusing. Here would be the entire script with the variables defined up front:

PHP:

<?

$uname = "cpanelusername";
$password = "mypassword";
$subdomain = "subdomainName";
$udomain = "yourdomain.com";

$authstr = "$username:$password";
$pass = base64_encode($authstr);


//Here we open a socket to the cpanel

$socket2 = fsockopen("www.mydomain.com",2082);
if(!$socket2)
{
print('Socket error');
echo "<BR>There was an error while setting up the account.  Please let support@mydomain.com know the above error";
exit();
}


//Next, we add a subdomain with $subdomain

$indom = "GET /frontend/xlagoon/subdomain/doadddomain.html?domain=$subdomain&rootdomain=mydomain.com\r\n HTTP/1.0\r\nHost:$udomain\r\nAuthorization: Basic $pass\r\n\r\n";


fputs($socket2,$indom);
while (!feof($socket2)) {
        fgets ($socket2,128);
        }
fclose($socket2);



?> 



Yea, I think that covers it....sorry for the confusion.

 

Helllo,

I ran thelast script you provided and it didnt work. I had a mess around with it later trying to make it work and found that when we send the the line to add the subdomain [at the same time auth]it dosent auth right. The user/pass are correct ive checed. Any ideas?

 

u change "mydomain.com" in rootdomain= directive? u must put your own domain mate..
