    Question Users

    I would like to allow access to cpanel for my friends to create their own webpage on my site. How do I do this without giving them full access?

    cPanel/Enkompass Access Level

    Root Administrator

    Default

    You should set up an ftp account for them. During the setup you will have to specify their directory. Your friends URL will be http://yourdomain.tld/their_directory.

    Question

    Okay, I set up ftp access for their subdomain according to these instructions on cpanel:

    "If you just want the new user to be able to access a sub-domain, just set the directory box to the same value as the sub-domain's root name, which is listed in parenthesis on the sub-domain section of this control panel."

    What url do i give them to log in at?

    Thanks!!

    They need to "log in" using an FTP client. You are not creating sub-cpanel admin accounts you are creating FTP accounts. These will allow your friends to upload web sites to their web space, not administer your cpanel account.
