WHM provides the ability to create individual cPanel accounts if you want to resell your own hosting accounts.
The following steps will guide you on how to create a new account in WHM, a feature only available to VPS Hosting, Dedicated Hosting, and Reseller Hosting users.
Step 1
Log into your WHM account with the following URL opened in a browser.
https:// yourserverip:2087 or https://yourhostname:2087 (where 'yourserverip' / 'yourhostname' is actually your server name/creds)
Please login as root and your password.
Step 2
In the left menu under "Account Functions", click "Create a New Account"
Step 3
Fill in the details for the new account.
Domain Information
Enter the domain name on the account and set a cPanel username and password for it. You need to enter the email address to link with the account.
Package
WHM allows you to create packages, which make it easier to manage cPanel accounts.
If you don't have any packages set, select the "Select Options Manually" option and set those limitations now.
Settings
Choose the cPanel theme to assign the user and select the appropriate language for the user.
Reseller Settings
Depending on the type of client privileges and services to offer them, you can choose here if this new account you're creating should have WHM access and be able to create accounts themselves.
DNS Settings
Decide how the domain's nameservers should be configured on the server. If the nameservers specified for this domain name are going to be on another server, choose the option "Use the nameservers specified at the Domain's Registrar"
Mail Routing Settings
Decide how the server handles email for this specific domain.
It's recommended to use "Automatically Detect Configuration" if you're not sure about this setting.
Step 4
Next, inside of the Reseller Settings section, click the option to make the account a reseller.
Step 5
After you have filled in all of the details above, click the "Create" button at the bottom of the page.
Congratulations, you have just created a new cPanel account!
