To setup your own reseller accounts you need root WHM
access on your server.
1. Setup the domain using the 'Create a New Account' link
(under 'Account Functions'). The resource allocations here DO
NOT define allocations for the whole reseller account, only
that individual domain. The username and password entered
will be the login details for this resellers WHM panel. You may
wish to setup this domain using a dedicated IP address from
the drop down menu on this page.
2. Next, click the link marked 'Reseller Center' (under 'Server
Setup). Here you must first 'Add Reseller Privileges' for this
account using the first drop down menu. When done, go back
to 'Reseller Center'.
3. If you want this resellers setup accounts to use a different
shared IP address, select the reseller from the drop down list
under 'Manage Reseller Main Shared/Ipless Ip' and select the
shared IP which will be used for their accounts.
4. Next we setup the reseller privileges by selecting the
reseller from the drop down list under 'Edit Reseller
Privileges/Nameservers' in the 'Reseller Center'. You can
define how many accounts they are able to setup along with
the total resource allocations for their whole reseller account.
In the tick boxes you can setup what their WHM has enabled.
We recommend that the following boxes are ticked:
Allow Creation of Packages with Unlimited Features
Allow Package Edits
Account Creation

Account Suspension
Account Termination

5. At the bottom of the page you should set the nameservers
which should be used by default when this reseller sets up
accounts. When done, click the button marked 'Save' (DO
NOT click any of the buttons next to the nameserver boxes).
6. You may wish to change ownership of this resellers account
to the user. This can be done using the link marked 'Change
Ownership of an account' under 'Account Functions'.
7. If this reseller has private nameservers, set them up using
the 'Edit a DNS Zone' link under 'DNS Functions'. Select the
main reseller domain then click the 'Edit' button. At the
bottom where DNS records can be added, enter 'ns1' (without
quotes) in the far left upper box and the IP address for ns1 in
the first empty text box to the right. Repeat this process for
ns2 in the row below. When done, click the save button.
This reseller account is now setup. Remember, the reseller
must create their nameservers (if applicable) using the
nameservers and IP addresses setup in their DNS zone in
step 7.
