2. Enter your current password in the Old Password field.
3. Enter your new password in the New Password and New Password (again) fields.
4. Click on the button. Your password has now been changed.

Subdomains
Subdomains are a way of creating separate accounts within your master account, which are accessed as separate URLs. For example, you could set up a "timber" subdomain on your master account "hardware.com", which would be accessed as "timber.hardware.com". A lot of larger businesses use subdomains to establish branding and focus on separate product lines, because a subdomain creates a separate URL and web presence. However, you do not create a new cPanel when you create a subdomain. You still perform most administration functions for the subdomain through your master cPanel.

Practically, a subdomain is a sub folder within the public_http level of your account that has it's own cgi-bin directory. The "timber" example above creates a new top-level folder called timber, with a cgi-bin sub-folder. Upload your files for the subdomain to this location, including a separate home file (such as index.htm).

Currently you can not create email accounts with the subdomain extension. A workaround for this is to create an account called "sales-timber@hardware.com", or similar.

To add a subdomain:

1. Click on the Sub Domains link in the Account Settings area.

   Note: You can only successfully create a new subdomain once your DNS number has successfully propagated for this account.

2. Enter the text for the new subdomain in the field in the available field. You must conform to domain name conventions for the addition to the name.
3. Click on the button. Click on the Sub Domains link to return to the Subdomains window to confirm that it has been added. A folder with the same name as the subdomain has now been added to your public_html folder, with a cgi-bin sub-folder (if CGI scripts are enabled on your account).

You must contact us to activate it with small charges. [Top]

Ftp Manager
The FTP area deals with all the tools relating to setting up and managing FTP accounts, as well as managing FTP sessions. FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is a method by which you can transfer files between computers, usually using the Internet. There is a huge amount of information stored on FTP servers around the world which can only be accessed by using FTP. When using FTP you use an application called a "client" to connect to a machine called a "server".

There are a large number of FTP software packages available. Some of them are built in to your browser (such as Internet Explorer), others are dedicated applications (such as such as CuteFTP or WS_FTP), while still others are built into web applications (File Manager in cPanel is one example). Generally speaking, if you are going to spend a lot of time using FTP or have a large amount of files to upload/download, a dedicated FTP client is the way to go.

cPanel allows you to set up FTP accounts so that certain external users can access a restricted part of your system. You can also set up an anonymous FTP account so that anyone can access a restricted part of your system. You can also manage these FTP sessions, cutting them off if they go on for too long.

Warning: FTP, by its very nature, allows external users to modify your web site (albeit a restricted area of your web site). External users can upload, download, and delete files. Keep this in mind when you set up an FTP account.

Error Pages
Error pages are served to Internet users when any one of a variety of errors occur, such as when a user enters an incorrect URL or is not authorized to access a specific directory in your web site. Companies often customize error pages to brand them with a specific corporate image and a link to their home page. You do not have to customize these pages - the error page is always available, whether customized or not.

To create or modify a customized error page:

1. Click on the Error Pages link in the Account Settings area.
2. Click on the button of the required error page, such as the button.
3. Enter the HTML code for the error page. You can use the buttons at the top of the page to insert variables into the displayed code.

   Example:

   <h1>404 Not Found</h1>
   <p>The page <!--#echo var="REQUEST_URL" --> ,is not available.</p>

4. Click on the button.
