Setup Shared Customer Under WHM
Jul 12, 2008
how you setup shared customers under WHM?
1) create a reseller account then set the shared customer under the reseller's account?
or
2) simply create the shared account under root account?
I usualy do it under root account...

Couple days ago all of a sudden my host that I've been with for years all of a sudden went down the drain. Why? Supposedly, my site was used for spam? Stupid. They are "trying" to compile my database and files, but I DOUBT that will happen.
With an already 24 hour downtime. I am receiving a lot of emails and phone calls on site. I need my community to get back up asap! So I guess it's time to find a new host.
I need a RECOMMENDATION on a westcoast host that will provide me with great customer service and the requirements I need to run my community.
Must handle vBulletin real well, have the requirements I need, and have great customer service.
This is a local forum, which is why I would like to be on a Westcoast Host.

I am thinking about setting up a Shared SSL and would like to know, what the best way, is out of the 2.
1. Set it up and then give space on the account so it would be [url]
Or
2. Set it up so they use [url]
Pros and Cons
Way 1: If I set it up this way, I will need to setup each FTP account in cPanel manually from what I can see, which maybe a problem in the future.
Way 2: I think I would need 'PHP open_basedir Protection' turned off for this account for it to work.

We Host a small number of webistes, only those that we have actually developed for clients. We have a standalone windows 2003 server. We have always skirted round the shared ssl space by just having a seperate ssl for any client that needs it, but now i want to know how to set this up, I know how to install certs in IIS im just not sure how shared space would work
We use FTP isolation mode on our server so everyones folder is under wwwrootlocaluser directory,
Can someone explain to me how shared space works and the best way to set it up ad provide access.

I've trawled the sitepoint forums but haven't found anything relating to this subject. I'm hoping someone out there has found themselves in a similar situation.
As a brief summary, I work as a full time web designer for a company but also run my own web design business in my spare time. Within the next year I plan to go freelance which will hopefully leave with some spare time to learn dynamic web design as well as offer clients domain registration and hosting services.
As a web designer, my knowledge of hosting is not that great, but I intend to learn. Currently, I work with a guy who sorts all this out for me. He has a shared server and pays a certain amount per month and charges me £XX a year per client to setup domains and hosting.
I was wondering how much technical skill I need to set this up myself. With so many hosting packages out there, it's hard to know where to start. Should I buy a dedicated server and host my clients at home or go with the safer option and pay monthly for shared hosting?

I just ordered a dedicated server from WebNX and I got 5 IPs, I assigned 1st 2 IPS to my server ns1.mydomain.com & ns2.mydomain.com
Now I want to setup other 2 IPs shared for resellers accounts, so each reseller can have ns1.resellerdomain.com & ns2.resellerdomain.com
how can this be done?

As my clients' needs expand, they're asking for chroot ssh/sftp setup. I'm currently on a dedicated Linux setup but don't really have the time to set up a whole new box with full virtualization or investigate a full chroot solution (baby on the way), and to be honest it would be less hassle to move to a new provider than worry about down time with sites.
What I'm looking for:
- linux hosting
- hosting for 30+ accounts, some with several domains
- at least 6 IP addresses for SSL certs
- each account in a full chroot environment (ssh/sftp/ftp) so they can't poke around each others' files, or each account set up in a virtual machine setup (ie: openvz)
- maildir
- spamassassin
- php 5, mysql, perl 5.8.8
- suexec apache would be nice

I have learnt it is harder to setup than I initially expected (since I have just moved from a shared hosting service). I am in need of some help setting up my DNS servers, as I am very confused. Here is most of the info I know:
1) I am running HyperVM
2) I've installed LXAdmin
3) I own the domain (purchased from xeodomains.com) runemart.com
4) My VPS hostname is: vps.runemart.com
5) I know my IP
6) My host has said:
'For VPS customers that have a HyperVM login you can now host forward DNS on the DNS servers rdns1.vaserv.com (US)rdns2.vaserv.com (UK'
And I am unsure what this means/how to do it.
I am not sure if I need some more information to set up my DNS, however I am sure that I can get it if I do.
Now, my questions begin. Firstly, I need to point my domain - runemart.com - somewhere. I believe I need to set up my DNS via HyperVM or LXAdmin so that they are something like: ns1.runemart.com and ns2.runemart.com. Though, is this correct? Am I able to set up my own actual domain name servers, or will my domain have to point at something like rdns2.vaserv.com?
If anyone can assist me in this I would be very greatful, as I am waiting to get my website running. This is all I will ask for now, I will take it one step at a time =).

I have a consulting customer using 172.16.253/24 as public addresses for their servers.
I was under the impression 172./8 was IANA reserved space not for public use.
Assuming I am not, what is wrong with this scenario, besides the fact that they _should_ not use that IP space as public ips for their servers?

My question is targeted towards providers who sell unmetered bandwidth servers. Like out of 100 customers who have unmetered 10Mbps how many would actually consume full 10meg , lets keep it to peak time for now.

I've been using shared hosting for some years now but lately found my sites were getting more and more sluggish, so I started looking around for a new host. Problem is, who do you choose? And what kind of service? I wanted something better than shared hosting but didn't fancy the complexities of VPS.
After some research I signed up for MDDhosting.com's basic Semi-Dedicated plan for one month to test them out. If it didn't work out I'd only be out twenty bucks
The set-up was fast - I was transferring my test sites within minutes of receiving their (five) instant welcome emails. When I had problems with the transfer, MDD's support team were very responsive (like, in minutes!) and when it got a bit tangled, Michael himself helped to sort it out.
After the initial issues (all my fault for setting things up wrong) the transfer of the rest of my sites was quick and painless. I'm now signed up MDDhosting's Intermediate Semi-Dedicated service.
I'm relieved, with semi-dedicated hosting, that they won't bog down over time with added subscribers. I'm impressed with MDDhosting.com's quality of service and I'm VERY happy at how fast my sites load now.
I give MDDhosting.com a ten out of ten!
Usual disclaimer: I'm not connected to MDDhosting.com in any way, other than being a happy customer. I don't normally post on forums but I was impressed by this company's service and I'm sure there are other small webmasters out there with the same kind of hosting problems I had.

I used to rent several servers from Intercage.
I have the legitimate service and have never been involved in anything bad.
But now, the Intercage is dead and my servers are dead also.
Is there anyone in e200paul who could provide me with the connection to my old servers so I could get my information? It's my last chance, I can't wait any longer and I really need this information.

Suppliers offer anything from Xen to Virtuozzo, OpenVZ, VMWare ESX. As a customer does it make any difference to you? Which do you prefer, or don't you care? Do you search out a VPS provider taking into account the virtualization technology that they offer?

I am just dropping in my week one positive review of geekstorage.com. I migrated my two domains to them earlier this week from vistapages.com, after having been with vistapages.com for two years.
I had to endure too many growing pains with vistapages, and I am on a tight budget, so was looking for something similar to what vistapages offered at a similar low price.
Vistapages upgraded the server I was on in recent months and things had been a lot more stable, so I was about to give up my search and renew for two years with them until I clicked on the geekstorage.com link in one of Jays posts here.
Immediately I was intrigued by their name and site design, and then even more so when I saw their offerings. I really like how they don't have a typical commercial looking site and feel. After looking at maybe a hundred or more hosting services on the web that all look the same, it was honestly a refreshing experience. I know that's not a technical point really, but I guess the geek look and talk just appealed to my geek nature.
I've learned by spending time here at WHT, and from two years with vistapages to be skeptical and that whatever host I end up with that I need to be prepared to get what (in my case very little) I pay for, so I try not to have high expectations and just hope that I get pleasantly surprised by good enough service that I can endure, or maybe better. I have definitely been pleasantly surprised so far by geekstorage.com.
They handled all my pre-sales questions well, and thanks to their current 25% off coupon code available here at WHT, I got their developer plan for $4.50 per month, which fits in perfectly for me, where my sites are low traffic (currently under 2 gigs transfer for the month), but I have plenty of room for growth with them if I need it, and in pretty much whatever way I may need or want to grow.
I gave Geekstorage my login info for vistapages, and they migrated my domains for me the same day I signed up (3 gigs of data, a menalto gallery/database, a couple wordpress databases, etc...), they just plugged it all straight in and I was up and running that evening. I sure enjoyed not having to lift a finger! (thanks again to Geekstorage for that)
I made a mistake and changed my nameserver addresses when I didn't really need to (I had been using zoneedit.com and could have just left it that way), and that change caused me a day of down time on one of my addon domains, which always sucks, but that was obviously my fault, and they were completely responsive and polite to my unnecessary questions that I kept emailing to them...
The one minor issue after the move was because of the lack of Litespeed support for shtml, but they went to work on that right away when I reported it to them, and for me it was just for a little toy script I have anyway, and I had some php code as a workaround for it (for random text display), so no biggy there, but more importantly what I learned from the issue was that as far as customer service goes, these guys are on top of it, and have kept me posted with regular emails on the status...
I've noticed that the server speed is great with them for my sites and better than what I had. With vistapages it used to be a real drag going to make wordpress posts and stuff because the control panel was so sluggish, and there was always high cpu use at all times. This is not the case where I am now, at least not for now... I know there isn't nearly as much traffic or sites on the shared server I am on now as there was with vistapages.com, and I am going to enjoy that as long as it lasts!
Anyhow, I am very happy with my choice so far, and completely recommend if you are looking for a low budget shared host to go with these guys.

What webhosting/domain/server company has the best customer area - ie. the best control panel, billing interface, integration with 3rd party scripts and control panels etc etc.
I think Mediatemple has done a good job, mosso's is excellent and I like what softlayer has done with their server management interface...
Anyone else?

Ive had many problems with hosting companies in the past, and each time i gain advice from other designers, i talk about it on forums (inc sitepoint), and i like to say i learn from my mistakes.
However, i obviously cant be learning from my mistake as i continue to have problems.
Now, this time i chose a experienced host. You could say they sold me a package and everything was good. No complaints.. well that was until today.
I come back from working away to find my website is down (www.avillafan.com)
I also find my host's site is down, and i also got no reply from a email. So i took it one step further and decided to phone them to find out whats going on.
And i get this reply ' Yes, we are sorry man - ill get it back up very soon'
Now what does this mean? very soon is a few mins. Its now been a few hours.
Now ive lost money in the past, as i like to go for yearly deals and each time i get caught out. And once again, im wondering am i entitled to get my money back? Now every other business the customer should come first and is aways right.
So how come this doesnt seem the case in the web hosting/designing business?

I don't think I've given my thanks to KH yet so here goes..
I've been with KH for over 2 years now and worked my way up from a regular VPS to a Hybrid VPS. Their costs are low for their high quality of service, product, and care.
They have always answered my tickets in a timely manner and been lenient in my times of financial crisis when I fell behind payments a few times. They even allowed me to keep my 10% lifetime discount when I upgraded to a Hybrid VPS just because I've been a member for so long. They also have scalability opportunities for members that need dedicated servers (which I will be moving to in a few months).
There really is no need to fatten this post up. Just take away from this that KH is the absolutely best hosting provider out there.

We are from Brazil and we've been working with US dedicated servers for 5 years (Staminus, SoftLayer and FDCServers). We are now looking for colocation options to reduce our costs.
Which companies would you recommend that would allow us to by servers directly from them, replace hardware and do upgrades ? (we don't want to ship hardware).
What are the "old" and well known companies that would offer this kind of service with great support ? (we just need hardware/reinstall support but with fast responses on emergencies)

I have no choice but to post this. I purchased a vps plan from them and couldn't login.
It was over the weekends. I tried to email them. No reply for more than 1 day. I emailed again, still no reply after many hours. I was quite shock because I read review that says support is supposedly good, even during the weekends. Have they closed down or are they posting good review for themselves?

I have a few customers that want to manage their own content. I don't think a CMS is the way to go (learning curve is too great) so I was wondering if anyone knew of a website software similar to Site Builder (but not Site Builder) that will allow a customer to edit their own content? Or maybe suggest an easy to use CMS~

I've been a satisfied customer at Servage for several years but the last couple a days is getting a little sweat on my forehead...
I'm not sure but some really weird things is happening at servage right now ....
I've tried to login at my controlpanel in almost a week - several times a day, but are not allowed access at all . Get the message that etiher username,password or captcha is entered wrong... I then try to reset my password etc - and it works all fine until I'm trying to login with the new one...same result - NOT working.
After several non working tries I decide to write them personal emails at sales@servage.net, support@servage.net, reply@servage.net ssf@servage.net (which is the founders private email ), but NO answer .... usually they're really kind and efficient and answers within a few hours, but this time : NO ANSWER .....
This evening I would then try to contact them again, and see on their webpage if I have missed some important email adresses, and I was QUITE surprised to notice that almost ANY of their subpages is leading to a non-existant page - EXCEPT from the order page.... pretty weird, I think
I'm not saying that they're on their way to close down, but it is actually an option if we take a look on the world economy in these days...
I would be glad if other Servage Customers could tell me if it is possible for them to login at their controlpanel at Servage

I usually don't do this kind of stuff but when somebody does a good job it's right to let other people know, most of all in this industry.
it was Saturday, 12:52AM Euro time, i had an issue with the DNS of our new server, sent an email to Leaseweb support, within 5 minutes i had the answer.

I just wanted to let you know that based on your recommendations I ended up with HostGator.com. The good thing I like about them is simplicity. I purchased an account and it was active VERY FAST. Compared to my previous experiences, this amazing. I was able to upload and start working with my space. They have a great interface with a cPanel link. They have a guide teaching newbies how to start they even offered tutorials on how to add my DNS using namecheap.com! which is my domain-name registrar.
The speed is excellent and I was using a webbased file uploader. I will check using FTP it should get faster. I have so many things to do to test their other features. I would definitely upgrade to their dedicated plan if I get a better bandwidth for their plan.
Conclusion: Great experience. Fast, professional and convenient. I recommend it.
I will keep this page updated if I get anything extra to add. Cons or Pros.

I've searched and have read the reviews of iicinternet and how poorly they treat customers but I had their service about 4 years ago and dont remember any of the reviews complaints being true. So I've decided to order service to see for myself and give them a fair chance to prove their critics wrong. I ordered service on saturday december 13th, it was the weekend and they dont say anywhere on their site that they setup new accounts over the weekend but I did not get a confirmation of my order, just a paypal email confirming I've paid for the service. So I waited, come monday no contact from iicinternet, then tuesday came and no contact so I used the yahoo pingbox on their site, bill would answer, ask for my last name then after about 20 minutes go idle and never return. So I waited, wednesday I did the same thing. I contacted bill via their yahoo pingbox, and he did the same thing asked for my last name then went idle. This time every 5 minutes when he wouldnt say anything I would ask if he was still there, he would reply with just the word "standby" and then go idle after about an hour. I continued to do this until friday dec 19th, when I emailed steve and support about the issue. I continued to contact bill on their yahoo pingbox to no avail. Today I called them and had the guy who answered pick up the phone, ask for my last name, then put me on hold for an hour never getting back to me.
Now when you buy a dedicated server for under $20 you dont expect much, but I do expect a server within a reasonable amount of time or at least some information as to why its not setup. Now going into this I knew that I might run into some bad customer service and I know you get what you pay for but I was hoping that I'd get at least some information on why it'd take over a week to setup a server, not to mention that the paypal subscription is automated and even if I've only had my server for 2 weeks they're going to auto-renew on the anniversary of the subscription which is completely unfair.
For anyone thinking about service with these folks please reconsider, you will just end up losing your money.

I thought you should know about the lazy and rubbish customer service at Knownhost.
I have a trojan in my 404 file of one of my blogs, which a spammer is using to insert 1600+ links into my header and footer. This of course will ruin my SEO, and google my even ban me for spamming and linking to dodgy sites.
My web developer told me to contact Knownhost which I did, but check out this reply:
Hello Julian,
The abuse queue is only for abuse reports regarding our customers. Please open a ticket with our support team directly through our helpdesk if you require technical assistance with your VPS.
Thanks,
Helen
KnownHost abuse
The word "abuse" seemed suitable, becuase my site is being abused, there is no description to explain what "Abuse" is for. Plus it took her about 3 hours to contact me, even though i marked it as critical, and then she refused to deal with it. The last straw is the fact that she didn't even pass it onto the right department. Its a good job that i was checking my emails.
So now i have to go and open a new ticket, not happy!
