Install to sub-folder?

Install to sub-folder?
I have a VPS with Sentora installed, and a couple domains working.  My Sentora is on sp.acme.net while the same machine has virtual host www.mydomain.com.

I understand I can't change the zadmin username, but I would like to put sentora into a subfolder of sp.acme.net.  Something like this:
https://sp.acme.net/mypanel will display Sentora.
https://sp.acme.net/ will redirect user to acme.net webpage

Right now, the reverse DNS on the IP for www.domain.com is sp.acme.net.  In other words, someone tinkering just a bit will get access to my Sentora panel login.

If it's not clear, I am going for a bit of "security through obscurity".  Maybe I should consider changing my reverse DNS entry for that IP to some other host name also, besides sp.acme.net?  Or maybe changing the reverse DNS is all I need to hide my Sentora panel login?

Thanks in advance

RE: Install to sub-folder?
Sentora is not designed to run in a subfolder. Some functions may not work properly. But, you can change the login port of the panel which should be more than enough to help 'hide' your panel login.


Either in Module Admin > Apache config or through phpMyAdmin as root, in the sentora.x_settings table, row 121 (sentora_port). Change it to whatever you want. Make sure the port is open in your firewall. Wait for the daemon to run (~5mins) for the changes to take affect.
