Hello, @akaab

The installation is pretty straight forward. You can see the instructions via this link: httpcentos-webpanel.com/cwp-installation or see the bellow:

**CentOS 7: Installer for CentOS 7**

cd /usr/local/src

wget httpcentos-webpanel.com/cwp-el7-latest

cwp-el7-latest

If the download link doesn’t work then you can use the following: CentOS 6: httpdl1.centos-webpanel.com/files/cwp2-latest CentOS 7: httpdl1.centos-webpanel.com/files/cwp-el7-latest

Reboot Server Reboot your server so that all updates can take effect and CWP gets started.

reboot

OPTIONAL: INSTALLER ARGUMENTS Available long name arguments –restart yes (for automatic restart after successfull install) –phpfpm [5.3|5.4|5.5|5.6|7.0|7.1|7.2|7.3] (you can use only one) –softaculous yes (install softaculous – script installer)

Available short name arguments -r yes (for automatic restart after successfull install) -p [5.3|5.4|5.5|5.6|7.0|7.1|7.2|7.3] (you can use only one) -s yes (install softaculous – script installer)

Example for centos 7 (you can combine short and long name arguments)

cwp-el7-latest -r yes --phpfpm 5.6 --softaculous yes

Any of this additionals can be also installed later from cwp gui.

Once CWP is installed you can tweak the sever security using CSF. Additionally you can disable the password login authentication for ssh and allow login only with ssh keys as well.

Hope this helps.
