Getting started

Reqad is a self-hosted, open-source hosting control panel for Rocky Linux 8/9, AlmaLinux 8/9 and RHEL 8/9. One admin manages everything - ideal for a single VPS hosting multiple domains.

What Reqad manages

  • Hosting accounts - one per domain, with disk usage tracking
  • Email - exim, dovecot, Roundcube webmail and SpamAssassin
  • DNS - Cloudflare, cPanel or PowerDNS
  • SSL/TLS - automated Let's Encrypt certificates, or certificates from other providers added manually
  • Databases - MySQL/MariaDB with phpMyAdmin
  • WordPress - one-click install and management
  • PHP - multiple versions, per account
  • Operations - backups, cron, SSH keys, services and a browser terminal

The big picture

You point a fresh Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux or RHEL 8/9 server at the Reqad installer, log in to the dashboard, and create a hosting account for each domain you want to host. Reqad sets up the web server, PHP-FPM pool, mail and DNS as needed, and can issue an SSL certificate automatically.
