ServAdmin Open Sourced
Friday, September 14th, 2007I’ve decided to release a web-hosting application that I had built from scratch a couple of years ago, ServAdmin. You can access the SVN repository on Google code here: http://servadmin.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/
Some of the features:
- Single administrative panel to control any number of servers (unlimited)
- Written from scratch — does not rely on 3rd party packages
- Written in about 95% PHP5 code.
- Secure communication between servers using stunnel.
- This allows you to have servers spread across the Internet where communications between them will happen on open networks, and still maintain a secure environment.
- OS-independent - Right now I’ve only written the ‘Linux’ server pieces of code, but this could be easily applied to any operation system. It is designed in such a way that you simply have to write the layer for whatever OS you’re concerned with.
- Controls MySQL, Apache, Bind and vpopmail to make a complete hosting environment.
If anybody out there is interested in picking up development, just let me know. It is really only a few polishes away from being a complete product.
