How To Add DomainKeys and SPF Records on CPanel Servers

This how to describe how to add domainkeys and SPF (Sender Policy Framework) records on CPanel Servers. Whenever you create a domain on CPanel server using WHM, it wont add domainkeys and SPF records for particular domains. To add domainkeys and SPF records please use following steps.

We consider here we have a domain sohailriaz.com with cpanel username sohailri

Please note on CPanel servers most of the work is done using cpanel username which then reflect setting on particular domains. If you have several domains / sub domains under one username, it will add domainkeys and SPF records for all domains / subdomains.

Execute the following command on your CPanel server using root.

=================================================================================================
1 DomainKeys
1.1 Add DomainKeys for single user

/usr/local/cpanel/bin/domain_keys_installer sohailri

where sohailri is a username
1.2 Add DomainKeys for all CPanel users.

If you wish to add DomainKeys for all Cpanel users on your server, execute following command.

ls /var/cpanel/users | while read a; do
/usr/local/cpanel/bin/domain_keys_installer $a
done
=================================================================================================


2 SPF (Sender Policy Framework)
2.1 Add SPF for single account.

/usr/local/cpanel/bin/spf_installer sohailri

2.2 Add SPF for all Cpanel accounts.

If you want to add SPF records for all cpanel accounts exist on your server then use the following command.

ls /var/cpanel/users | while read a; do
/usr/local/cpanel/bin/spf_installer $a
done
=================================================================================================

3 Enable DomainKeys and SPF for every new CPanel account.

If you want to add DomainKeys and SPF for every new account created on Cpanel, then do the following.

vi /scripts/postwwwacct

postwwwacct is a file which execute after wwwacct (used to create account), paste following lines in the file

#!/usr/bin/perl

my %OPTS = @ARGV;
$ENV{USER} = “$OPTS{‘user’}”;
system q(/usr/local/cpanel/bin/domain_keys_installer $USER);
system q(/usr/local/cpanel/bin/spf_installer $USER);

RLimitMEM Directive

Description: Limits the memory consumption of processes launched by Apache children
Syntax: RLimitMEM bytes|max [bytes|max]
Default: Unset; uses operating system defaults
Context: server config, virtual host, directory, .htaccess
Override: All
Status: Core
Module: core

Takes 1 or 2 parameters. The first parameter sets the soft resource limit for all processes and the second parameter sets the maximum resource limit. Either parameter can be a number, or max to indicate to the server that the limit should be set to the maximum allowed by the operating system configuration. Raising the maximum resource limit requires that the server is running as root, or in the initial startup phase.

This applies to processes forked off from Apache children servicing requests, not the Apache children themselves. This includes CGI scripts and SSI exec commands, but not any processes forked off from the Apache parent such as piped logs.

Memory resource limits are expressed in bytes per process.
