Hello guys!
I am moving from DreamHost for a server with Cpanel (reseller account).
I tried to search for a few terms as "dreamhost' and others and what I read did not help very much.
I got the "Documenting Manual Migrations to cPanel" pdf, too. Reading it.
1st problem: I needed to create one accout (user) for each domain in WHM. When I was logged in Cpanel with one of the users I could not create a new domain under it. Neither if they were the same (one .com and other .com.au).
this is not good.
Why one client can not have more than one domain under it? This has no logic. In my mind he can have as many domains as his account allows (10 to unlimited).
What am I doing?
--- IN DREAMHOST ---
1. Go to the FTP account in DreamHost and download the data to my desktop.
2. Go to mysql user account (mysql.domain.com) and download the database (.sql file)
-- IN CPANEL server ---
3. In the reseller's account (WHM) I create the new user to that domain.
4. In cpanel (new user) I create the database_user and database.
5. Upload the data to the directory TRANSFER in the reseller's account and ask for the "support" to upload them to the new user account.
6. Go to the Registar and change the DNS setup (ns1 and ns2) pointing to the Cpanel's server.
The support of this "cpanel's server" is not so good, unhappily. The guy asks everytime to a .tar file. I know he wants to use a feature of WHM that allows the importation process automatic.
Looks like or he is a lazy guy or he does not know how to do the migration process.
I think he will not solve the problem and after propagation I will have to do everything by myself.
BIG PROBLEM: E-MAIL DATA
Dreamhost has a feature where you can backup and download the email data by users.
I can not access the email directory by myself.
I see they have the same options as we can find in Cpanel (squirrelmail and others).
If this happens, it means I can download and upload email DATA without problem.
WHERE?
How can I do it by using reseller account?
My reseller account has not some options, unhappily.
What am I doing wrong?
