I have some presales questions that I'd like answered before I consider purchasing cPanel.
1) My customers frequently do not buy domains, so I set them up with subdomains of domains I already own.
Is it possible to add subdomains from other domains to people's accounts ? So the Subdomain would function as their main domain ? IE user.domain.com and then they could add subdomains such as ... site1.user.domain.com site2.user.domain.com
What if site1.domain.com is assigned as a domain for one user. But another customer wants site2.domain.com on their account as well ?
2) Can I still add accounts from command line, via useradd that function as normal Linux environment accounts ?
3) Can I edit apache / named / exim / files directly, or does cPanel provide the facility for me to setup e-mailing lists accounts / etc/ for domains that don't even belong to a customer.
4) I have one customer who uses my exim server as a relay from his server to the outside world, so I allow him access based on his IP, is this possible with cPanel, or will cPanel allow me to directly edit exim config to allow it ?
5) Can I edit global webalizer and AWStats configurations in order to include things such as hostname groupings
6) What if I want name1.domain.com and name2.domain.com to go to the same subdomain ? can I simply add a Serveralias directly in the apache vhost config ?
7) What if I have custom DNS entries, can I modify zone files directly or though cPanel ? (Preferably Directly)
