How to kill an account that isn\'t in the list accounts list?

I want to delete an account demo.doman.com but it doesn\'t show up anywhere but it does exists. I can even login to the cpanel but I want to DELETE/KILL it...

Help please.

in the /scripts dir (ssh) there is a file called killact I think.

run:

./killact

and that should do what you want

Nope!

I want to make demo.domain.com but WHM says it allready exists. One time all files were gone from the list accounts screen but that was repaired but we forgot demo.domain.com

When I do /scripts/killaccts demo.domain.com it says that not all info could be found so my question is were I can deleta all traces of demo.domain.com so I can make a new one.

Thank you.

You would probably want to start by deleting the domain\'s http.conf entry, as well as the domain\'s zone file entry. Since you mentioned the account was in the form of demo.domain.com, have you checked whether it appears under subdomains in the domain.com cpanel? If it does, all you would have to do is remove it from there.

I think you don\'t understand it right. This is not about a subdomain but a REAL account named demo.domain.com

It\'s for a demo account from our cpanel.
I can\'t create because it allready exists but were can I delete it ???

Can anybody help me with this please???

Nevermind, I fixed it.

I found out what I had too remove and now it works again.

Perhaps you could tells us what you had to remove?

[Domenico]

Everything that relates to the account I made including the account dir in /home directory.

which using my way would have done that anyways - the way you have done it...there will still be files left over that you dont know about

Hi nick,

./killact didn\'t work (can\'t find ....) in the first place and that\'s why I posted this message.
:P
