Upgraded DNS for de-branded domain

Monday, August 27th, 2007

We have increased DNS redundancy for the de-branded domain used by Ilisys resellers for toolkit, mail and ftp access.

This domain now uses six separate DNS servers, spread over two unique and remote providers.

This new configuration limits the opportunity for degraded service in the rare event that a provider’s network is inaccessible.

Fully re-brandable Toolkit

Tuesday, February 28th, 2006

We now offer the facility to fully rebrand the Ilisys Toolkit with your own header and footer. Rather than accessing https://toolkit.ilisys.com.au, your customers will visit https://toolkit.your-domain.com.au.

Since the Toolkit uses SSL to encrypt sensitive customer data, you must purchase a secure certificate in order to take advantage of this facility. GeoTrust QuickSSL Premium certificates are available for $299, including IP address and installation.

Login change for reseller customers

Thursday, February 16th, 2006

Users accessing re-branded Toolkits will no longer see the option to login as Account Managers.

Now, users will simply be asked to login with their domain name and password. This update has been made to prevent user confusion. Note that you may still login as Account Manager by entering your Account Manager email address and password.

Custom default pages

Wednesday, February 15th, 2006

You may now configure your own default page that will display when you have not yet uploaded data to a newly activated hosting package.

This feature is available within your Toolkit, when you login as an Account Manager.

Dynamic subdomain facility

Wednesday, December 28th, 2005

Dynamic subdomains are a new feature of our Linux Cluster wherein requests to test.yourdomainname.com.au are served from www.yourdomainname.com.au/test.

Dynamic subdomains provide a simple way to create a self contained website that still relates back to your main site, for example a support portal.

To make use of Dynamic subdomains first enable the feature within your Toolkit, then create a directory under www. This directory will then be accessible as both dirname.yourdomainname.com.au and www.yourdomainname.com.au/dirname.

When first enabling Dynamic subdomains the subdomains will not be available until midnight that night.

Brandable MySQL management tool

Wednesday, December 28th, 2005

This morning, we released a brandable interface to our centralized installation of phpMyAdmin.

phpMyAdmin is a tool written in PHP intended to handle the administration of MySQL over the Web. Currently it can create and drop databases, create/drop/alter tables, delete/edit/add fields, execute any SQL statement, manage keys on fields, manage privileges, export data into various formats and is available in 50 languages.

To access your branded phpMyAdmin interface, navigate to http://phpmyadmin.your-domain.com.au.

To rebrand the interface with your own logo, simply upload the image to your-domain.com.au/__store/img/logo_login.gif

New DNS management tools

Wednesday, December 28th, 2005

This morning we released an enhanced DNS management interface in the Toolkit. This interface allows customers who are comfortable with the DNS to manage all aspects of their domain name configuration.

Specifically, the interface provides the following capabilities:

- Reseller editing of the SOA records (contact email address, TTL and white label nameservers);

- Creation and editing of A and TXT records for the domain. As such SPF TXT records can be created for the domain;

- No limits on the number of records creatable per host. As such things like DNS Round-robins and A and TXT records for the same domain name are possible;

- Full customer control of MX settings. Note, this feature requires activation - please call Technical Support if you would like this feature.

Unbranded Toolkit feature

Wednesday, December 14th, 2005

We now offer the facility for resellers to offer their customers an unbranded Toolkit facility that they can refer their customers to.

This unbranded Toolkit uses the same SSL security as the standard Toolkit, but with a generic domain. Please contact us for details of the unbranded toolkit, including the generic domain name.
