Once after you have managed to login to your WHM control panel and performed the initial configuration, you can start using it to create cPanel accounts for your domains. Within cPanel control panel, you can create email accounts for your domain, upload your website files using File Manager, and other functions.
1. Creating cPanel account for your domain
If you plan to host a domain, say example.com on your cPanel, you would need to create a cPanel account for the domain (example.com) under your WHM control panel. More information on how to create cPanel account for your domain can be found on our knowledge-base article at below URL:
2. Logging in to your cPanel account
Once the cPanel account has been created, you may login to cPanel control panel using the username and password of the newly created account at below URL:
https://YOUR-IP-ADDRESS:2083/
Replace YOUR-IP-ADDRESS with the IP address of your servelet.
If you receive warning message that the connection is untrusted, please ignore the warning. In Firefox, click on "I Understand the Risks" message and then click on "Add Exception" button.
