ProPanel

[hankinator]

A friend and I just recently started on a project to code a game control panel called "ProPanel". It will be both on windows and linux platforms. We plan on using ssh2 and libssh2 with php. However, what would we do for windows, how could we get remote command prompt access.

The main structure idea around have one master web server that can access other servers (windows + linux) and install the software and things along those lines.

I think this could be a manageable project, I just need a little help with the windows portion of it.

Also to answer any more questions, it will be free, but not open source.

You could make a custom SSH Server for Windows?

But the way it seems you want to it in, seems very ineffective. You might want to, look on how others do it.

Hi Hank

[hankinator]

Yeah, after a about an hour of googling I found a few programs that would work perfectly. Thanks.

I know what you mean though, I am just aiming for a versatile panel.

and hello loopy.

[loopyman]

I hope it goes well emailing you some ideas

[Nisd]

If you decide the write the Windows part of the panel in C# I can help you out. Also if you want it, I got some half finished code for a "Game Monitor" around,
Etc, checks process, rcon, see if the game server is responding, that sort of stuff

[hankinator]

I think we will just be sticking to SSH for both windows and linux, the more simple it is the better off we will be. Also, that game monitor idea sounds amazing, we were planning on putting in some kind of monitor for it. How much of it is done exactly?

[Nisd]

Well the monitor it self it done, but there is not interface what so ever for it.

I attached a copy of the code, it is kinda old and I made it a long time ago

[hankinator]

Thanks, I will see what I can do with this.

[loopyman]

nisd your rcon program might be useful as well ;P

[Nisd]

This also have Rcon, if that is what you are thinking

[loopyman]

I think so, it was similar to hlsw, but it wasnt hlsw ;P

I started with exactly the same project a few years ago with advanced user management, multiple mysql based host, virtual servers and configurable command parameters and detailed permission management so big server providers could use this tool as well.

i'm curious about how exactly you work on this project, as i had to stop the developement, because it is just too much for a single php programmer.

if you need help, you can contact me. i even could provide you my old classes.
i myself am a professional php5 designer with 5 years expecience

Thanks dude, I might take you up on that offer. I am a scripted and understand both linux and windows decently well. I will be doing the server portion of it. If it is either ftp, srcds, ventrilo, mapservers. ect.

My friend is working on the web portion of it, where it deals with the users and the php-ssh2 stuff.

Theres no point in using a query/rcon class written in C#. Everything could be accomplished easily in PHP, you could even create your own control daemon in PHP for controlling a windows server if you'd like, the only downside being you wouldn't be able to use multiple user accounts on the box for running multiple servers.
