To configure cPanel and WHM prior to installation, you can use a command line text editor to create the file /root/cpanel_profile/cpanel.config. By entering a set of recognizable parameters, you will be allowed to configure cPanel and WHM before they are installed. Upon installation, this configuration file will be copied to /var/cpanel/cpanel.config.
The parameters are listed below as a set of variables. The variables are defined in basic terms as “variable name (variable type) (valid input values).” To define a variable, simply set it equal to a value. For example, to set the maximum emails per hour that any domain can send to 500, add maxemailsperhour=500 to /root/cpanel_profile/cpanel.config.
Remember: When using the Boolean variable type, a value of 1 means the feature will be enabled while a value of 0 means the feature will be disabled.
