If fantastico is installed on the server, but the fantastico icon is not present in cpanel then you will have to check 3 things on the server as,
1) Make it sure that Option fantastico is CHECKED in the feature list assigned to that account.

In order to check this, you will have to login into the root WHM and select the option called Packages >> Feature Manager and edit the feature list that is assigned to that account.
You can check which feature list is assigned to the account from edit package option in whm.
2) First check the theme that cpanel is using.

And after that please check the symbolic link to the fantastico directory is present or not.
In order to create the symbolic link, run the following command say for theme bluelagoon as
– ln -s /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/fantastico
/usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend/bluelagoon
3) Please check the cpanel version and If you are running cpanel version called CPANEL 10.4.0C150 or next and icon is not present in cpanel’s own themes like x, x2,xmail etc, then run the command as a root via SSH

mv /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/fantastico/xskin.html
/usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend/x/cells/fantastico.html

While sending emails from your email address and you get the error Unrouteable address with RCPT reject. That means the problem at receivers end.

Check the following things.

1. Check the domains entry is available in userdoamins.

2. Check the domains entry is is available in localdomain

3. check the domain must having catchall address set if not then set
vi /etc/valiases/domain.com

*: username

4. also make sure that the mail folder having ownership user:mail

5 restart exim services once.

6. Now your problem will get resolved.

MX Record is an entry in a domain name database that identifies the mail server that is responsible for handling e-mail for that domain name.You can have website on one server and MX record on some another server and in that case you will have to ulter your MX entry in DNS zone for that perticular domain.

You can have multiple MX records for a same domain and it will check for MX record set with priority.
lowest number will receive mail first that is lower number will have highest priority.

1)You will have to login as a root in WHM

2)Go to the option called DNS Functions >> Edit DNS Zone

3)Select the domain from list and edit that domain
You will see the entries like
XYZ.com. 14400 MX 0 XYZ.com.
mail 14400 CNAME XYZ.com.

4)Suppose you want to change MX to point to the ip 176.199.1.90 then you will have to do the changes in MX record as
XYZ.com. 14400 MX 0 mail.XYZ.com.
mail.XYZ.com. 14400 A 176.199.1.90

5)Save the chnages and remove the entry for XYZ.com from /etc/localdomains.

6)Edit the /etc/remotedomains file - this tells Exim to not handle mail for this domain.
vi /etc/remotedomains
Add the domain name to this file.
Save the changes.

7)You can check the changes done in MX record for the domain at — http://www.dnsstuff.com/

This can be done with .htaccess, visitors must input username and password before they can access the protected directory.

Step 1.
Create the file “.htaccess” with the following content under the directory you want to protect, you can specify the password in any place as long as Apache can access it.

AuthUserFile /home/account/passwd/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthName “Title”
AuthType Basic

Step 2.
Generate the password file “.htpasswd” under the directory /home/account/passwd/ with the following command:
# htpasswd -c .htpasswd user_name

You will be reminded to input password for the user “user_name”, this command can be called multi times to generate multi users.

Step 3.
This step may not be necessary. If there is an entry about the directory you want to protect in Apache configuration file, make sure AllowOverride has the option authconfig.

For example, when protecting Awstats pages, the Apache configuration file should be modified as following:

Options None
AllowOverride authconfig
Order allow,deny
Allow from all

Restart Apache
# /usr/local/sbin/apachectl restart

If you are not aware of my.cnf files configuration and want to use mysql server to optimize your database usage then replace this configuration file.

Robots.txt file is a simple text file which is responsible for preventing crawling of your site’s pages. Suppose you have certain pages which are not SE friendly such as pages including repeated keywords, some hidden tags with keywords and some other bugs which may be responsible for getting your site banned from search engines.

The robots.txt file is a simple text file which can be created using Notepad.
It should be saved at root directory of your site. eg.http://www.yoursitename.com/robots.txt.

Format :
User-agent: robot or spider name
Disallow: files or directories.

If you want to exclude all the search engine spiders from your entire domain, Just use this tiny code, but be sure you need it.
User-agent: *
Disallow: /

If you want to prevent your certain directories, you can specify them in Disallow field.
User-agent: *
Disallow: /directoryname1/
Disallow: / directoryname2/

Similarly if you want to restrict specific files then type in the path of the files.
User-agent: *
Disallow: / directoryname1/filename.html

If you don’t want certain spiders crawling your site, which are not useful for you or are just eating up your bandwidth, you can specify them in User-agent. Eg. You don’t want bot of Alta vista (Scooter) from crawl your whole site use following code.
User-Agent: Scooter
Disallow: /

While using robots.txt file you should be careful, It may stop your specified pages from appearing in search engines.There are many hundreds of bots and spiders crawling the Internet, most of them respect your robot.txt file while some may not.

Note :

(*) You can include comments in your robots.txt file, by putting a pound-sign (#) at the front of the line to be commented.
(*) You can find the names of robots which are crawling around your site in your log file..
