Also from Cpanel Update this morning:

TailWatchd is a new concept in log processing from cPanel. Previously, three daemons were used to gather information from mail and bandwidth logs (antirelayd, eximstats and cpbandwd). These daemons have been deprecated and replaced with a more robust and more lightweight TailWatchd. The move to this new system will reduce load due to log processing and allows for a more robust interface with the daemon. This daemon with all three log processing drivers uses less memory than just eximstats!

Technical information about TailWatchd can be found at: http://www.cpanel.net/support/articles/tailwatchd.html

We have received this information from Cpanel Update this morning:

” cPanel VPS Optimized is a new version of cPanel / WHM specifically designed to run on Virtual Private Servers. cPanel VPS Optimized provides the feature rich functionality of cPanel / WHM while reducing memory usage by up to 60% on VPS instances.

cPanel VPS Optimized represents a great step forward for cPanel customers. The reduction in memory usage for each install allows web hosts the ability to host more domains per virtual machine. This increase enables hosts to provide a more efficient and eco-friendly server base with fewer physical machines.

The upgrade to cPanel VPS optimized will require no interaction. Once cPanel VPS Optimized has reached the build tree on your server, automatic updates ( or manual) will upgrade the current cPanel / WHM installation to a cPanel VPS Optimized installation. cPanel VPS Optimized is currently only in EDGE builds. ”

Ans. Yes we can provide cPanel & Web Hosting Manager as a control panel option on our Centos or Fedora Core VPS’s. The price is currently the same, as for Plesk.

We recommend a higher spec VPS for cPanel.

Also Weycrest we recommend Plesk for VPS useage as it better integrated
into the VPS software.

You can specify your control panel choice in the comments section of the order form?
