Deprecation Notice

Please be advised that we are sunsetting developments and any support on this Community Edition of QuickBox as we are devoted to the further developments of QuickBox Pro. There is a lot of work daily that goes into QuickBox and I simply do not have enough time to manage the Free edition as well as the Pro edition, you can still roll with this CE, jsut keep in mind that some software may not install properly or dependencies may become deprecated. We welcome any Pull Requests from users and you are more than welcome to post patches for our review and inclusion to keep this edition going!

Join the QuickBox Community!

We love our Community, in fact, we love them so much that we want to provide every possible means for our users to come together in civilized discourse for sharing ideas, techniques, tips and tricks on just about anything, and general chit chat coupled with awesome support! We don't even have to, but we do it out of love!

Check us out on the following platforms. Within you'll find friends and a supportive bunch looking to get you along. Additionally, we don't really use our GitHub for issue tracking and support, it's simply not the proper medium. I know, it's not always fun to setup yet another account, but hey, you're here right!?

The QuickBox Discord Server/Live Chat

Oh yes, it's total mayhem! Fun features, live updates, games and prizes, support and a whole lot more... come find us for a late night buzz and really rediculous conversations and budding bromances.

Quick Advisory Notice(s) on QuickBox

:rotating_light: OVH DEFAULT KERNEL NOTICE!<br>

grsec is built into OVH's custom kernel and it absolutely wrecks havoc when using these panels where we depend on the ability for one user (www-data) to see the processes of another running user ($username). <br>This can be seen clearly by using a task manager such as h/top. <br>With grsec enabled you can only see the processes owned by your user unless you run htop as root. As such, it is highly recommended to use the stock kernel for your distribution or at the very least installing an OVH kernel that is not compiled with grsec <br>If you are using So You Start (SYS) as a host, you should opt to use the distribution kernel. You will see this as a check box option when installing your server. Otherwise, QuickBox will handle this for you on install.


Please understand that we do not want to push this project as a means to supply a commercially used product, ie; seedbox provider - so keep this in mind - only if you wish to sale slots on your server. Though it is very multi-user friendly... it is also not free of it's faults due to it's high amount of capabilities and being publicly available. This is a community based project that is a measure of goodwill to be given to such an outspoken and freethinking community.
