Exim Bulk Remove Email Messages in Queue

exim -bp | grep "string" -A1 | awk {'print $3'}

Replace string with the email address, or domain you want to search for and delete.
Note that -A1 may not be needed. Grep will just search for string and 1 line after it. I had a problem with the string I was wanting to use was on the line below it

WHM/cPanel – Change Main Server IP

Change IP Address from command line

Open up the following file, change eth0 to your primary ethernet adapter. More info here.

 vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

and under IPADDR set it to the new IP. Update netmask and gateway if needed.

Save file and restart network

systemctl restart network

Update License

You may need to run the following to update the license on the server.

/usr/local/cpanel/cpkeyclt

Change Server IP in WebHost Manager

Change IP for server in Basic WebHost Manager Setup

Other things to do

You may need to migrate IP’s to the new address.
If you are keeping the old address on the server, then you may need to readd it through the IP Functions.

WHM/cPanel – Works from some networks and not others.

Had a problem with a WHM/cPanel server where it was working fine from a couple different networks, but then would not work on others. The server itself seemed fine and fully operational.

Checked firewall rules on routers, server, checked IP routes, tried disabling cPHulk. Ended up being there were a couple addresses added with the incorrect subnet mask which was keeping it from working. Removed the IP’s with the wrong subnet and it started working on all networks.

[root@host ~]#

Under eth0:cp6 the IP has a 255.255.224.0 subnet which is incorrect. Should have been a 255.255.255.224 (/27) subnet.

Removed the IP out of WHM and then readded with the correct subnet mask and it now works.

Make sure you add and IP with the correct subnet

cPanel/WHM enable shell_exec

SSH into WHM server

ssh root@cpanel.host.com

Modify Website php-fpm Config File

Edit the following config file. Replace “website.com” with the website your enabling the shell_exec for

vi /opt/cpanel/ea-php72/root/etc/php-fpm.d/website.com.conf

Locate the following line and remove shell_exec from the list of disabled_functions

php_admin_value[disable_functions] = exec,passthru,shell_exec,system

The line should look like the following

php_admin_value[disable_functions] = exec,passthru,system

Restart Apache PHP FPM Service

Save the file and restart the apache_php_fpm service

/scripts/restartsrv_apache_php_fpm

cPanel unable to access locally hosted domains

Check and verify that DNS is not being blocked upstream by a firewall. Behavior is weird, the server can get out to the internet, access to the servers IP address is available, but can’t ping domains that are locally hosted. Are also unable to ping the domains from the internet in.

To resolve the issue either disable the DNS firewall rules, or better yet add some rules to allow access to the cPanel server.
