    Note: The procedure above allow your server to bypass the boxbilling server license key by responding itself to any license check.
    Tested with the last BoxBilling version 3.6.11. I've used this procedure just for fun and once again to prove that any PHP based software cannot be locked. If you use that procedure and gain some money with BoxBilling, I would recommend you to pay for a true license.

    That´s a nice topic, i´ll test that tomorrow
    and give Feedback.

    I'm guessing this is an Ubuntu-exclusive tutorial because whenever I use the command


    cd /etc/apache2/imscp/boxbilling.com.conf


    it doesn't work and says there's no directory or files. Is there a CentOS tutorial?

    You're in the i-MSCP forum... If you have knowledge you can modify by your own, but we'll not give you support here, sorry.

    And by the way, BoxBilling is now free so this thread is not longer relevant...
