How do I create accounts in my reseller account in WHM ?

[Support]

Please follow below steps to create accounts for your clients in WHM.

1) Login to WHM

2) Create package by cliking on "Create new package" link in packages category.

While creating packages do not put "UNLIMITED" in any feature field box as WHM treats "UNLIMITED"= 1. You may face some problems in future if you put "UNLIMITED". Hence Always assign some reasonable number say 999 or 9999 for UNLIMITED.

3) Then click on "Create New Account" in Account Functions Category. Enter domain name , user name and password. Then select package you want to assosiate with particular account and hit "Create" button.

Please wait until you see message "Account creation completed"

That's it.. you are now ready to use newly created account.

Note: You need to update newley created domain DNS to your reseller account servers. It means your reseller domain and all your clients domains points to same name server.

After DNS propagation you can access newly created domain cPanel just like your domain. http://www.domain.com/cpanel or https://www.domain.com:2083

Replace # with your server number which can be found in your reseller username.

Hope this helps you

1. What is the difference between and/or the functions/outcome of in my WHM?
    (a) ADD PACKAGE &
    (b) CREATE  NEW ACCOUNT

Add Package is for a hosting plan. eg lagoshost.com has a hosting plan call economy for shared accounts. and Create New Account there is for a hosting account. Therefore, I can add a package call Basic and them create a hosting account under that basic package.

Why is it the my Reseller DNS is not ns1.my reseller name & ns2.my reseller name?

Your dns is ns1.yoursite.com and ns2.yoursite.com . We usually add dns to a reseller account when we create it. 

Hope I have answered your question.

Cheers!

Thank you for your response.

However, i want you to clarify the issue of DNS based on your last post as quoted below.

Your dns is ns1.yoursite.com and ns2.yoursite.com . We usually add dns to a reseller account when we create it. 

The DNS on my own reseller plan is not  ''ns1.yoursite.com and ns2.yoursite.com''; instead what i have is ''ns1.gloservers.com and ns2.gloservers.com''. If i understand the concept, the nameservers that should show should be ns1.fadconhosting.com and ns2.fadconhosting.com. Could you please explain why it is so and rectify it accordingly. Thank you.

Yes, gloservers.com is LagosHost company too. We are still developing it for what we want to do with it.

When we create a reseller account, we are registered the name we normally add nameservers to the name. Just like fadconhosting.com, we created a DNS for it but it takes time to come up and we could not wait for that time so we hard to use gloservers.

At this point, we can change it  to ns1.fadconhosting.com and ns2.fadconhosting.com upon request.

Thank you.
