There should have been two DNS servers listed in your welcome email, probably something like ns3.jaguarpc.net and ns4.jaguarpc.net or similar. All you have to do is go to your domain name registrar and change the DNS server settings on your domain name to those two addresses.

Due to caching it will probably take a day or two after you make the change for the name to start resolving to your JPC account, but once the transition period is over your site will always resolve to the account here and you can cancel your existing service with the other provider.

Welcome, I told you that you'll love this place .

To get multiple domains set up you'll want to go to your cPanel and create a subdomain for each site. When you do that you will have a directory created within your public_html, this directory will have the same name as your subdomain. Upload all your files there. Once you are ready contact support by starting a new ticket and ask them to point your domains to those subdomains on your account. After this is complete all you have to do is update your name servers under your registar to point to the jagpc name servers which you should already have in your welcome email.

You need to use cPanel to set these multi-hosted domains up for you.

First, use cPanel to setup the subdomain. Then, use cPanel to make the subdomain it created into a multi-hosted subdomain.

Once you have done this, then you can add your files to these multi-hosted subdomains, using WinSCP or whatever...

As an example, my main domain is Lenon.com. Some time later, I wanted to add Lenon.info to my account as a multi-hosted subdomain. I had cPanel create a subdomain called 'info'. Then, I had cPanel turn the 'info' subdomain into a multi-hosted subdomain for Lenon.info -- then, uploaded my files to the 'info' folder using WinSCP. That was it! Simple pimple...

The key to all this is letting cPanel do the work for you!

And, if you goof up, or can't get it to work, don't fret. Contact Tech Support, and I'm they'll sort it out for you...

Heh!

You must type faster than me...

BTW, this WHM function was added to cPanel some time ago. You can do it all yourself now...

The do-it-yourself tool only works for new domains, though. If the domain is already registered and points to nameservers that are not in the JPC network it won't let you add the multihosted domain, so you'll have to go the subdomain and support ticket route that's already been described.

If you are registering a new domain name and creating a site for that then the Multihosted Domains tool works great.

Guess I'll have to take your word for that... However, I didn't realize www.Lenon.info existed for, like, nine months. Remember that dot info scam the regs were doing -- giving away *free* domains, but not telling you about it? I found out about it in these forums...

My domain was parked elsewhere for months, before I moved it here, and the cPanel function worked first time.

Anyway, yes, as the pic above says, if you have any problems, contact Tech Support.

Had you already changed over the DNS servers before you added the domain? When I tried to move a domain that was hosted elsewhere to my JPC account I was not able to do it and others have reported similar experiences as well. As long as a whois lookup shows that your domain currently points to a DNS server in JPC's network then that tool will work.

Yeah, I think so...

I've done it twice (moved one domain-- the other was new), and didn't have any problems either time.

I'll pay more attention next time 'round!
