Bare metal license
Hi, by going trough cpanel licensing model, there is no bare metal license for few users, only 100.
Is there a possibility to purchase dedicated server license for 5 users?
Its silly because my server cost is lower than 100 users cpanel license and I literally have server with 5 user accounts and 5 websites on it.

I suppose cPanel Inc's justification for it is "Why are you running a bare metal machine for just 5 accounts/users and not using a VPS?". I know that you can get "Solo Metal" (11 account) license from their Partner's (not directly from cPanel themselves) along with the "Premier Metal" account (up to 100 accounts included). 0 -
@hunt695 - there aren't any "secret" license types besides those available in the cPanel Store. As @rbairwell mentioned, some partners to offer a Solo Metal license, but that would be restricted to just one cPanel account, so that also wouldn't work well for your needs. We may expand the types of licenses offered in the future, but I can't say when or if that would happen. 0 -

Yeah, that sounds bureaucratic enough. But the truth is I really host that way @cPRex I understand, please do expand license types.0 -
