Secure admin panel

[imagize]

Is it possible to secure the litespeed admin panel using the same ssl certificate that whm uses? or do we need to generate a custom one ourselves?

You need to generate a new one.

To change the link from the whm plugin to your new secure admin panel...

I changed this line in main_menu.php (/usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/cgi/lsws/main_menu.php)

$buf .= '<a href="http://' . $_SERVER['SERVER_ADDR'] . ':' . $admin_port . '/">Admin Web Console</a>';

to

$buf .= '<a href="https://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . ':' . $admin_port . '/">Admin Web Console</a>';

This makes the admin url to your servers hostname with ssl.
