OpenSRS Addon
We have created an addon for OpenSRS module which allows admin to provide login and password for domains instead of generating them by the module. It is meant for increasing security and performance (eg. for imported domains) because normally it uses hardcoded credentials. You can activate it under "addonsPlugins" section.
