support pageIf you don't know a term we are using please take a look at our
'What is...?' page.
If you want to download the complete manual about our control panel click

Note: file is rather large (748 KB) and you well need Acrobat Reader from
Adobe.
What is Cpanel?
CPanel is the web interface to administrate your web site. You
can access your control panel at:
http://www.yourdomain.com/cpanel/
or you may use
http://your ip adderss/cpanel/
The first one 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.
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. Sessions show
any users that are currently logged into your domain. Settings allow you
to modify access to your anonymous FTP site.
CGI
We have numerous customizable cgi scripts
that have been pre-installed on the server for you to use with your own
account. The only thing you'll need to do is select the script you are
interested in using, select the colors, style etc., and click the "Make
HTML" button. You can then paste the HTML output into any of your
HTML files to use that system cgi program.
Java
System Java works the exact same was as cgi see above for usage.
Web Page Protection
Web page protection is used to limit access to any directory to users
who enter a user/password combo. To protect a directory within your account
click on the directory, enter a user / password for access and 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!
Email
Email control panel allows instant creation of e-mail POP3, forwards,
and aliases.
Access Stats
Provides access to many different programs that will analyze your access
logs and show you more information about your web sites traffic. Take
a look at this regularly, it will help you understanding what the people
using your web site want and where you will have to make additional efforts.
Password
Allows you to change your main accounts password. Change your passwords
on a regulary basis.
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.
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.
Handlers / 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. If you would like
to configure a custom MIME type such as making .pictures a gif image file
you would enter it here.
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
