cPInstall Legacy Archive
About cPInstall
Originally built for UnderHost customers, cPInstall was a lightweight bash script that automated the installation, hardening, and optimization of cPanel & popular plugins. Designed for both novices and sysadmins, it simplified server setup dramatically.
The project has evolved into an internal cPanel plugin, and parts will be open-sourced later under GPL. Meanwhile, the bash script remains as a legacy snapshot.
