Does anyone know a free alternative to Cpanel? I have a friend that runs a awesome free hosting companies and would like to offer a control panel like Cpanel, but as a free hosting web site, can not afford anything of that cost. So, does anyone know of any FREE software that will allow people with hosting accounts to manage the different aspects of there account.

Examples:

- He offers 1 MySQL database. It is by default your username and password, but it will be cool to make your own.

- It would be nice to see how much space you are using up and how much bandwith you have used this month.

- Currently to have someone's password changed, they have to email him. If they could do it automatically without bothering him, that would be great!

- It would be cool to have all of this built in and have web stats and stuff.

These are just common challenges that a free web host faces. So does anyone know of any such program? Thanks,

there are a lot of tools like that in development or some even mature enough to use. www.site-control.org is one still in development, and there is also web://cp or something like that which is, afaik, mature enough to already be used.

try http://www.webmin.com.

Most of them stop developing after a while. Go for a cheap CP such as hspere or something.
