I have an account with a shared web host and I use that account to host 9 website under 9 different domains. All the domains are hosted as add-on domains under that single shared cpanel account. Now I would like to do a WHM account transfer from the shared hosting to my own VPS server. But I want all my domains to have its own private cpanel accounts.
Is this possible with the WHM automated account transfer feature? or do I have to create cpanel accounts for each domains in my VPS and upload the files manually?
i have a dedicated server. Centos 5.3 /Cpanel 2 reseller accounts on it: acc1 and acc2. acc1 has ns1.domain.tld and ns2.domain.tl nameservers set up acc2 has ns3.domain.tld and ns4.domain.tl nameservers set up
now i want to move an account (customer.tld) from acc2 to acc1 without downtime. how can i do this provided i can not have customer.tld both on acc1 and acc2 on the same server?
here's what i did:
1. changed customer.tld nameservers to have ns1.domain.tld, ns2.domain.tld, ns3.domain.tld, ns4.domain.tld then waited for 48 hours for the changes to propagate
2. changed the customer.tld owner in WHM from acc2 to acc1
3. changed the cpanel package from acc2_package ti acc1_package
4. changed the IP in WHM for the account from ns3 IP to ns1 IP
5. changed the DNS entries in WHM ns3 changed to ns1 on all instances found there
but i still have a downtime period now. everything looks fine in httpd.conf thou
What is the best way to move Frontpage accounts from one server (non-cp) to another (Cpanel or Plesk)?
I understand that using FTP may corrupt the FP server extensions; is rsync an option, or should the client always upload files to the new server from their FP software?
Is there any way to connect to a new server account (using FP) via the IP; before pointing the domain to the new server?
I am moving my accounts soon from my VPS which I have root access to and was wondering if anyone could tell me what I need to do, to the DNS.
As last time I did this I had to edit the DNS Zone, by editting one of the following: refresh , retry , expire , minimum ttl but can not remember which one or to what.
how to move all existing e-mail accounts including passwords, current e-mails on the server etc from one server to another (both running Exim)? No control panel.
We recently moved all our hosting accounts from our servers to new servers with a new host. In the process of this move, after moving all the domains and setting the nameserver ips to the new ips, none of the sites are pulling up. I changed the ip for all nameservers to the ones provided to me by the new host but we cannot figure out why the sites are not pulling up, he says everything on his end is fine? Talking about 100+ clients who have been down for over a day now after changing the nameservers and cannot figure out whats going on. All we did was set the ips on my current nameservers to the new ips below.
Now they are claiming they can bring the sites up, but none of the clients I have talked to can bring them up. Also I cannot bring up any domains or ping them from my home or work.
Example domains that are not working that were moved: bluetongueskinks.net pokemongamesnow.com
The 204.16.247.150/~username works fine. See 204.16.247.150/~pokemon
The accounts transferred over fine in WHM. We were using a dns redirect in WHM on the old server before changing nameservers to make sure it pulled them all up fine.
ips for the nameservers 204.16.247.150 and 204.16.244.150.

We have about 3 resellers on one server and all of a sudden, when I log in to whm and click "Show Reseller Accounts", all accounts show under root.. What's even strager, is that under package colum, it says "undefined"
However, when I click "list accounts", all accounts show and they are properly setup up with the correct package and owner (not all root.. They also show to which reseller they belong).
how to fix the problem when I click "Show Reseller Accounts"?
I've been on shared hosting for nigh on 3 years now. My site suddenly started growing rapidly recently and my shared host now has requested that I move onto a VPS or Dedicated as soon as possible (I would stay with them, but they don't have VPS options sadly)
My site is an image host, a dynamic image host too.
About 80% of my visits are from the US so I have decided, even though I am UK, that I need a US VPS.
I need it to be cheap, like $30 (To start with, while I gain funds) and generally reliable.
Would anyone know where such VPSs are? I would like 300MB or more RAM and about 5-10GB of disk space. My main issue right now is quality of customer service, I don't want to end up with a company that either has poor customer service or puts extreme restrictions on activity.
I have two reseller accounts at the moment, where all my domains are spread out at the moment. And I have just purchased a VPS from SolarVPS, and I'm awaiting the account details. Is there a way that I can transfer the sites across easily, such as creating a full backup and then restoring on the new VPS, or would I have do it individually for each website?
It's now coming to the point where I really want to consolidate all of our kit (mainly in the UK) and move to our own AS number, now I already know what routing equipment we're going to use and that is appropriate for the amount of traffic we need to carry, but what I'm stuck with now is which transit providers to use. I don't mind spending a reasonable amount on transit, but not stupid amounts. It also doesn't matter where I can pick these up as the plan we have includes our own links between buildings.
First of all let me say this is going to be a very slow process, so please do not PM me with your offers for transit, I'm not interested.
The plans are to peer at a couple of exchanges, most likely LINX and Xchangepoint, and to pick up around 3/4 transit providers. Because most UK traffic goes via peers, what I'm really looking for are the bigger providers to improve transatlantic routes rather than smaller providers which just make the hop count longer, my shortlist is currently:
I'm moving from a VPS to a dedicated server and most of the files/databases have been transferred.
I have a folder (with files) in the /usr/local/ folder of the VPS (chatroom software), is there anyway I can transfer them to the dedicated server in its /usr/local folder through SSH/Telenet?
I have used it before to move my MYSQL database but I was following step-by-step instructions from Vbulletin, I guess this will be different compared to transferring a database backup.
I just had a thought. If I am moving from one host to the other, the old host would still have my files. Whats stopping them from just using the files to copy my site. Basically is there an easy way to delete my files from my old host?
only problem is that I'm on limited bandwidth internet, and i still have some really large files on the old server. can i transfer them to the new server without re-uploading them?
I have had my social networking site in development for a few months now, and have been using IX web hosting. Slow response times were one thing--I can handle that for now. But, especially now, emails generated by my application and sent to Yahoo are delayed by several days--apparently Yahoo is restricting the number of messages from IX servers?
My app only generates a dozen or so emails.
So ...
1) Is there a workaround with IX?
2) If I switch, should get a dedicated server? Or maybe use the cloud? I have been looking at rackspace, although I haven't received a call-back from their sales team in four days (sic)
I'm trying to move data from my old server to new server, using WHM, now thing is while moving it just uses all IP on the system and when there are 0 IP's free, it says copying failed, How to make all accounts goon just 1 IP?
I am a free web hosting service on one of my VPS' and I owuld like to transfer it to another one. How can I do it without creating issues as I would like to move all the accounts with it at the same time.
Current VPS and webhost nameservers
ns1.domain1.com ns2.domain2.com
New VPS nameservers
ns1.domain2.com ns2.domain2.com
Now how can I move all the accounts but dont change the nameservers? I mean is it possible to have two different domain name servers pointing to each other?
Not sure if it makes sense but hopefully some expert guy will get to the bottom of it
i have moved my site (pages and data) from my VPS to dedicated.
NOW I want to move the domain from VPS to Dedi.
Both are running on directadmin. I want to quickly move domain so that new user registrations are on the new domain only. Last time when I did this, at some locations domain still resolved at old and I lost some data on old server.
what should i do? I think i need to:
1. update NS at the domain registerar.
2. update the ip address in the DNS administration of old server directadmin so that the ip address is of new server there.
I'm just wondering. Say, you sign up with a host offering a huge discount (50%+ off for a year). And after that year is up, you move to a new host offering another huge discount. You keep doing this, every year.
I'm pretty sure a lot of people do this.
I guess from a webhosts persepctive, it will be quite annoying since they are banking on the fact that the person will stay with them after the initial year.
