Domain Technologie Control (DTC) is a GPL control panel for hosting. Using a web GUI for admin and accounting all hosting services, DTC can delegate the task of creating subdomains, email, and FTP accounts to users for the domain names they own.

DTC manages a MySQL database containing all the hosting information. It has support for many programs (bind 8 and 9 and compatibles, MySQL, Apache 1.3, php4, qmail, postfix 2, courier, dovecot, proftpd, webalizer, mod-log-sql, etc.) through config files and/or MySQL plugins (when the service is non-critical).

Domain Technologie Control project can also generate backup scripts, calculation scripts, and config files using a single system UID/GID and monitor all traffic accounting per user and per service. Since version 0.12, DTC is fully skinable and translated in 8 language (Chinese, English, Spanish, French, Deuch, German, Italian and Russian).

DTC has been tested and works well with FreeBSD, Debian stable testing and unstable and now handles SBOX cgi-wrapper to provide chroot environment to users binaries. There is a RPM for DTC that has been done under RedHat 7, but it's not well tested (I need feedback on this one as I don't use RPM based distributions myself).

What's New in This Release:
This version adds support for Xen VPS connecting to dtc-xen (SOAP server) and the cyrus.
It includes support tickets, renewal with email reminders, a new, easier to understand layout, (unfinished) import/export functions, domain parking (for DNS, Apache, and mail), daily stats (instead of each month), and some more package installers (Joomla, Vtiger, WANewsletter, and drupal).
