    I am looking to create an IP based site and I am not exactly sure how to do this in cPanel.

    I am looking at allowing others to point their domains at this website. What are things I need to be aware of? What is the best way to accomplish this with cPanel? Thanks in advance for the help!

    I have been through those, I didn't see anything definitive on how to create an IP-based site that does not have a specific domain. I saw the section for creating an account, however does that mean the domain I give for the account is bogus essientially?

    Only way I know to do it is manually

    Add the ip you wish to use to the server and activate it
    xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx = added ip

    Add this to the apache config

    NameVirtualHost xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:80
    <VirtualHost xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:80>
    DocumentRoot /usr/local/apache/htdocs (path to your web files)
    <IfModule mod_suphp.c>
    suPHP_UserGroup UID GID (of the files)
    </IfModule>
    </VirtualHost>

    Hello :),

    login to WHM
    click on account functions
    select Create a New Account
    give your account info and details on what IP you want to use etc
    and your site with any of your choice IP will be ready:cool:

    Little late, but couldn't you just create an account with a domain of "ipsite.tld" or something similar and give it a dedicated IP address?
