After discovering scripts running in my /tmp folder (in CentOS 5.x) I had to harden the directory.
The faster way to harden your /tmp and /var/tmp without rebooting is the following:
In your /dev directory create an empty 2,5 GB file (best for web hosting servers with many websites).
# cd /dev
# dd if=/dev/zero of=tmppart bs=1024 count=2500000
We will now create an ext3 filesystem for in our tmppart file.

Lets say you have to navigate to a long directory like /var/www/vhosts/mydomain.tld/httpdocs/myfolder/ etc
even if you give the command “cd /var/www/vhosts/mydomain.tld/httpdocs/myfolder/” at your shell window you will see only your username and the last folder , something like “root /myfolder#” in order you view the full path without having to use the pwd command every time, (more…)
For that purpose you should add an entry into domain’s zone DNS like:
To create www prefix for subdomains you need to take the following steps:
1) Create vhost.conf file in the
/home/httpd/vhosts/domain.com/subdomains/subdomain/conf
directory with the following content:
ServerAlias www.subdomain.domain.com
2) Add appropriate A record to the DNS zone of the domain in
Server->Domains->domain.com->DNS
(specify this domain’s IP address instead of 192.168.1.1):
www.subdomain.domain.com. A 192.168.1.1
3) Run wersrvmng utility to apply changes.
# /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/websrvmng -v -a
