ConfigServer Community Forum

Some time ago I "briefly" deactivated CSF because there was something not quite right on my server, and I was wondering if CSF might be the culprit (It wasn't). After testing was complete, I clicked "reactivate", saw a message that said "DONE!" and went to continue with other tasks.

Today I found out that my firewall was down during all this time, putting my server at an unnecessary risk. Why? Because the fineprint after "reactivating" CSF said that it wasn't actually reactivated (to do that, you need shell access).

Can the makers of the CSF plugin (thanks, kudus, and everything else!) please replace the "DONE" by "NOT DONE!" - possibly in red? I can't imagine I'm seriously the only one ever falling into this trap, and as a matter of fact, it might happen to me again if this isn't fixed. Thanks!

Install webmin and use the plugin GUI via webmin.

Why?

Or don’t and continue without a gui.

I just confirmed and there is a DirectAdmin plugin.

From the main page of CSF here... https://www.configserver.com/cp/csf.html

• UI Integration for cPanel, DirectAdmin and Webmin
• Easy upgrade between versions from within cPanel/WHM, DirectAdmin or Webmin

Do you always just read the thread titles. or sometimes the post texts as well?

This is a request for a feature in the existing plugin, It is not a request for a plugin.

It depends on the weather and if it's an even or odd day on the calendar.
