Hi
I have about 10 sites on an older version of cPanel that does not include WHM. I am trying to move the sites over to a new reseller package that does include it.
the subdomain given to me by my hosting company is name.myzen.co.uk
I have set up a package and used that to create a new account - under the pretend domain edtest.com
The point behind this all is that I want to be able to set up "Mirror" versions of the existing site on the New server space. So I would ftp up all the site into the new account. However, I obviously would like to have the "Mirror" all set up and tested BEFORE I redirect the real domain name to it - to create a seemless swap.
However, I can't access the test sites on the new server. My host said something about setting up either a new subdomain, and I have spent a couple of hours on the phone to them and don't seem to be any further forward.
Is there some way i can access the new, mirror versions without re-directing the domains - or have I to just accept that there will be a little down time?
Thanks in advance
Edward
PS sorry about the title - couldn't think of a better one!
