Manage Servers from Multiple Countries

[sylvester]

Hi, will appreciate some kind technical advice on possibilities to do this ..

 

1) Sign up 2 reseller accounts, one locally in Singapore, another one in US

 

2) Our cart website is on the Singapore server (as our clients are mainly Singapore based)

 

3) The whmcs is on the US server and will take care of both reseller accounts

 

Will whmcs be able to take care of both reseller accounts in this way?

 

Will it be able to handle domain registrations for TLDs as well as a Singapore SGNIC Accrediated

Registrar (for .sg domains)?

 

Thanks in advance for any help

Yes, although you will probably find that the software will timeout when trying to control the SG server - a reseller account will not give you the control over PHP/etc that you require to "tweak" thinsg for WHMCS

If you write the module for sgnic, or sponsor it, or buy one then yes

Thank you for the advice othellotech

Sounds like it'll only be feasible IF i can get the host to tweak things to make it work for me?

You happen to know if one is available for purchase? If yes, how much will it cost?

If they have an API you can create one yourself: http://wiki.whmcs.com/Creating_Modules

Thanks for the link John

 

What are your thoughts on the time-out issues with Singapore server as mentioned by othellotech?

[Matt]

There's no reason to think you would get time-out issues with the Singapore server. Only if the account creation takes more than 300 seconds would you start seeing issues like that and the distance wouldn't cause that.

That's great to hear.

 

Talking about that, is there a setting to increase the session length? 300 secs is fine but good if it can be increased

[WHMCS John]

Session length is different from timeout length (which we are talking about). There isn't an option, but if you really need a longer timeout open a ticket and we can customise the module with a longer timeout.
