Running Scan from Command Line ?

I used to use CSF with cPanel and there was an option with the CSF plug-in to run a security scan. It would give a score and list suggestions on improvements.

Is this same feature available from the command line (as I no longer use cPanel) ? - I've had a look through the documentation and couldn't find it, but I may have overlooked the details.

Thanks in advance,

Daniel

To create HTML output from the CLI:

Code: Select all

csf -m
More usefully, to create the code and send it in an email:

Code: Select all

csf -m my@email.com
It can also be run/viewed through the inbuilt csf UI or the Webmin plugin, etc.

Thanks for the reply - That's great.

What is the inbuild csf UI that you refer to ? - Can that be accessed directly without cPanel or Webmin,etc ?

Thanks
Daniel

Yes, look under "Integrated User Interface" in csf.conf and in the readme.txt file.
