Cpanel Install and Licence

You may install cPanel without a license, however it will not be usable until you obtain a license.

Also you need the public ip address of the machine that you plan on running cPanel on.

You can get this address by running the below command if you have lynx installed.

lynx -dump http://www.cpanel.net/showip.cgi

If you don’t have lynx installed and are directly connected to the internet, you can use the below command:

/sbin/ifconfig eth0 |grep inet | awk ‘{print $2}’ | awk -F: ‘{print $2}’

-dump dumps the formatted output of the default document or those specified on the command line to standard output. Unlike interactive mode, all documents are processed. This can be used in the following way:

lynx -dump http://www.subir.com/lynx.html
