Recommended Modules for AMH 4.2 Hosting Panel

AMH is the first open-source hosting panel in China, using the GNU/GPL open-source license. It supports the LNMP environment. The latest AMH 5.0 also supports LNAMP, but the free version of AMH 4.2 can fully meet our needs. Here, we introduce several commonly used modules for AMH 4.2.

AMH Common Modules

1. phpMyAdmin-4.0.0

phpMyAdmin is very convenient for online MySQL management. Although Amysql has independently developed the AMS MySQL management system, there is still a significant gap compared to phpMyAdmin, making it indispensable.

2. AMRewrite-1.0

This module provides Nginx server rewrite rules. Many users previously used Apache servers, and if they switch to Nginx, the rewrite rules may not work. Therefore, using this Nginx rewrite module is very helpful. If you are familiar with Nginx, you can also add these rules manually.

3. AMPathinfo-1.0

By default, the AMH panel does not enable PATHINFO support in Nginx. Using this module allows you to enable or disable PATHINFO support for virtual hosts. Previously, some file path issues occurred because this module was not enabled, which was later identified as the cause of the problem. You can choose to use it if needed.

4. AMFTP-2.0

AMFTP is a web-based online FTP file management client. It supports fast uploading of multiple and large files, as well as online decompression and compression of zip, tar, and gzip (tar.gz) formats. It also supports creating files, editing, moving, renaming, and setting permissions. After installation, you can manage and log in to corresponding accounts in the FTP section. This can eliminate the need for a local FTP client. However, if your files are large, it is still recommended to use an FTP tool for stability.

5. LanYing-VPN-1.0

LanYing-VPN allows for the rapid setup of a VPN proxy server. It supports user management (add, delete, modify, query) for PPTP and L2TP VPN proxy methods, making it very convenient to use. If you are using a foreign VPS, this module is highly recommended; for domestic VPS, its significance is limited. The screenshot below shows the VPN setup using DigitalOcean.

AMH has many more modules than these, and they are constantly being developed and improved. You can choose the modules that best suit your needs.
