    Default New to WHM, a question

    Hi,

    I have a server setup running WHM and CPanel.

    I have the server primarily for one site, but am looking to allowing other accounts with cpanel etc.

    I have one account for the main site (example.com) and if I was to setup an account for someone else, could I allow a subdomain to example.com (otheraccount.example.com) but still give that user access to their own cpanel etc etc.

    Or do they require their own domain?

    You can use sub-domains if you want, just create an account called subdomain.domain.com and they will have their own cPanel. E-mail though is a different story, they could use user@subdomain.domain.com but better to do as Andy suggested and use a proper domain if required.
