Without Virtuozzo

[.Joe.]

Hello,

Alright, say you have a dedicated server, whatever. A server, it's linux based. Would it be possible to make a VPS without using virtuozzo? Just by making it with WHM?

Regards.

emm.. WHM has no VPS support :P

You should use OpenVZ then, it's open source, no control panel though

Can't I give them the specs they need, and then give them SSH access? wouldn't that be suffice?

[utcrazy]

SSH access to the main server is like saying "Hey, why not hack me" People want root access, and if you gave them server root, they can just delete the whole server. People also want root WHM.

[.Joe.]

Okay, Root WHM, I can do that via. Root WHM?

i think you are missing the point. if you give them root whm access they can delete all your accounts and still mess up the whole server

Vmware.

Just remember; If you split a server into many VPS's you will need different cpanel licenses for each VPS.

Also;

Giving root SSH access to other people? That’s a BIG no no. They will be able to edit every account you have, as well as do whatever they want to do to your server :S

Vmware.

I thought VM-Ware was exclusive to Window based servers.

Ok, thanks guys. So os there any software other then Virtuozzo for linux based servers?

As other people have suggested:
OpenVZ (http://openvz.org/)
VMware (http://www.vmware.com/download/server/)

If you give people ssh access to a main server and you give them root...Your giving them your server. Thats not virtual...no way to set specs (cpu/memory/quotas)

I would suggest doing ALOT more reading before attempting this :)
