1. Cpanel
All accounts
come with Cpanel, a control panel. You can access your control panel
at: http://www.yourdomain.com/cpanel/login or use, http://www.yourdomain.com:2082
(This will not
be active until your domain has been transferred to our nameservers.)
You will be asked to enter your user / password to gain access to
your configuration. The control panel is pretty much self explanatory.
However, if you need more instruction, please Click

2. FTP Accounts
Accounts Used
for managing access accounts to your web space. The creation of
an FTP account will allow users to log into a sub directory from
your main account without gaining access to your main accounts.
You may resell this space. Sessions show any users that are currently
logged into your domain.
Settings allow
you to modify access to your anonymous FTP site. More info on anonymous
FTP usage in the Master Cpanel Guide.

We have numerous
customizable cgi scripts that have been pre-installed on the server
for you to use with your own account. And, all of our packages allow
for use of your own personal CGI scripts.

4. Web Page
Protection
Web page protection
is used to limit access to any directory to users who enter a user/pass
combo. To protect a directory within your Cpanel:
1.) Click on that directory.
2.) Enter a user / password for access.
3.) Click add. You can add as many users as you wish to this file.
This protection is for resources accessed via the WEB only, this
will not create an FTP user.

5. Email
Email control
panel allows instant creation of e-mail POP3, forwards, and aliased
accounts.
A POP3 account
is a stand alone incoming e-mail account.
Please Note:
When creating additional accounts other than your default email
account. The login for that account is NAME@domainname.com. Not
just NAME. You must add the @domainname.com behind the account you
created to receive email from the server for that specific account
in your Eudora or Outlook mail client. Example if you create an
additional account named johndoe to receive email on your server,
you would set it up in your email client as follows ::
Mail Server
:: mail.yourdomain.com
SMTP Server :: mail.yourdomain.com or use your ISP's SMTP Server
for outgoing mail (saves your bandwidth).
User Name :: anyname@yourdomain.com
Password :: passwordhere

7. File Manager
The File Manager
allows you to modify the files in your web site in real-time via
a web based interface. You can perform many commands such as chmod
as well as actually edit the file and save it directly to the web
server.

8. Java Chat
Java Chat allows
you to access your personal java chat server and supplies the code
for you to use the product on your own site. This is very basic.
For a more robust chat, we recommend a remotely hosted chat room.
We do NOT allow IRC chats.

9. Handlers
/ Mime-Types
You will probably
never need to use this portion of your control panel. A MIME type
is basically what tells the web server that a .html document is
a web page, and that a .gif doc is a gif image etc.

10. Custom
Error Editor
This section
lets you customize the errors that your users will see instead of
the generic server errors. You could setup a 404 page to redirect
users to your main web site instead of the default dead document.
