iManager2

iManager2 is a Web based Virtual Private Server administration tool which allows you to manage many of the common tasks involved in regular server administration. In addition to basic user and sub-host configuration tools, it includes an IMAP style E-mail manager and an easy to use Virtual Private Server file manager.

• File Manager

  The File Manager gives you full control of your files, allowing you to upload, download, edit, move, delete, or copy your files using an easy to understand graphical interface.

• E-Mail Manager

  The Mail Manager functions like an IMAP E-Mail client program, allowing users to check, send, and store their E-Mail through a convenient Web-based interface.

• Tools and Wizards

  The Tools and Wizards allow you to manage your Virtual Private Server, including managing users, E-Mail accounts, autoresponders, and spam controls

• Multi-Language Support

  iManager is now available in French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, and Spanish. The default language can easily be changed in the language preferences section.

• Virtual Hosting Support

  Virtual Hosting setup and maintenance in the Apache configuration file can now be easily done through the new Virtual Hosts Utility. Apache can also be restarted through this utility.

• Preferences

  Certain aspects of the File Manager, Mail Manager, and the administrative Tools and Wizards can be customized to your own liking. For example, by default you are prompted to confirm the removal of a file or a mail message. Using the Preferences wizards, you can turn this confirmation off.
