Pure-FTPd FTP Configuration WHM
Version 1.0.22 and higher of this popular FTP daemon allows the administrator to enforce TLS encryption on both the command and data channels of an FTP session. The FTP Server Configuration interface in WHM is updated to provide access to this feature.
The Broken Clients Compatibility directive is added to the WHM FTP Server Configuration interface. When enabled, this directive causes Pure-FTPd to ignore parts of the FTP protocol standards, to improve compatability with some buggy FTP clients and firewalls.
The cPanel WHM MX Editor interfaces
The cPanel and WHM MX Editor interfaces and subsystems received an update in cPanel™ 11.25.
This changed for cPanel™ 11.25. There are now the following options to configure how mail is to be handled by the local server:
• Automatically Detect MX Configuration
• Local Mail Exchanger
• Backup Mail Exchanger
• Remote Mail Exchanger
These options are presented in the Email Routing section of the MX Entry cPanel™ interface. A bried decription of each option appears in the cPanel™ interface. The description includes how the option will change the way the local system handles email for the domain being modified. This setting may be changed independently from the action of modifying a MX record.
Modifying the Email Routing for domain changes, or adds, an entry to the cPanel™ user file, normally in /var/cpanel/users.

There may be compatibility problems with any software you choose to install manually.
Cpanel only supports MySQL versions that they supply with cPanel & WHM.
The cPanel & WHM update script (/scripts/upcp)
This script handles most of the updates on your cPanel & WHM system. You can run this script in 2 ways:
* On the command line, by entering /scripts/upcp as the root user.
* In WHM, using the Upgrade to Latest Version feature at Main >> cPanel >> Upgrade to Latest Version.
In addition to updating cPanel & WHM, this script also updates most of the software on your system by calling a number of other scripts within the /scripts directory.
