    Hey there! Thanks for sharing. It might be worth reaching out to your host as well to see if they have a full disaster-recovery style backup in place if the machine doesn't come back online.

    I'm being told by others that the symlinks are fine and cpanel support was incorrect about them being broken. They show up that way on everyother server. Those guys nearly gave me a heart attack so we are just back to square one for figuring out this error: The system failed to connect a UNIX domain socket to "/var/cpanel/dnsadmin/sock" because of an error: Connection refused

    I did. ticket #94463935. They apologized and are now saying the fix is to update and restart.

    Thanks I think it should be fixed after I update and restart afterhours later. Systemd works in funny ways and I don't blame the people at support for seeing flashing red symlinks and thinking something is wrong because I fell for that aswell.

    I see our team was able to run "/scripts/check_cpanel_pkgs" and that repaired many packages on the system, and you're no longer having issues with the server.
