CPanel



CPanel is a fully featured web-based control panel that allows you to manage your domain through a web interface. The idea is to transfer as much of the control and responsibility of managing your web site to you. You have the ability to manage all aspects of e-mail, files, backup, FTP, CGI scripts, and web site statistics.

CPanel provides a complete range of functionality to manage all aspects of your web site:


General server information

You can view a variety of information about the server from the home page.

Service Status – Displays information about the status of the web services currently running.

Documentation – Displays the online help for CPanel.

Mail

The Mail area allows you to manage all aspects of your e-mail, from adding new accounts, managing mailing lists, and setting spam filters.


Change Password

Your domain password is the password you use to log on to your CPanel. You should change this occasionally to maximize your site security.

Parked Domains

You can set up a domain name that you own to point to another domain name. This is known as ”parking” a domain.

For Example You own the mrdtcloudhostings.com and mrdtcloudhostings.net domain names. You already have a web site for mrdtcloudhostings.com, but you do not want to create a new web site for mrdtcloudhostings.net at the moment. By parking mrdtcloudhostings.net on top of mrdtcloudhostings.com , all URLs for mrdtcloudhostings.net will automatically go to mrdtcloudhostings.com instead.

Add on Domains

An addon domain is a domain name that that points to a subdirectory within your account.

FTP Manager

The FTP area deals with all the tools relating to setting up and managing FTP accounts, as well as managing FTP sessions. FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is a method by which you can transfer files between computers, usually using the Internet. There is a huge amount of information stored on FTP servers around
the world that can only be accessed by using FTP. When using FTP you use an application called a ”client” to connect to a machine called a ”server”.

File Manager

The File Manager allows you to manage your site through HTML, rather than an FTP tool or other third-party application. You can upload, create or delete files, organize files in folders, and change file permissions. While not as sophisticated as most FTP tools, File Manager is free and gives you all the basic functionality necessary to manage your site.

Disk Usage

The Disk Usage Viewer enables you to see exactly how much disk space is being taken up by various parts of your web site.

Backup

The Backup area allows you to download the daily, weekly, or monthly backup file of your entire web site, or a particular MySQL, alias, or filter backup file. If your computer crashes, or your personal backups are destroyed, these files allow you to recover your site in a convenient manner

Password protect directories

You can protect directories within your site from browsers by using a password to protect them. This allows you to restrict material to only authorized users or store sensitive material online. This has the same appearance and effect as the password protection on CPanel.

Error pages

Error pages are displayed to Internet users when any one of a variety of errors occur, such as when a user enters an incorrect URL or is not authorized to access a specific directory in your web site. Companies often customize error pages to brand them with a specific corporate image and a link to their home page. You do not have to customize these pages – the error page is always available, whether customized or not.

Subdomains

Subdomains are a way of creating separate accounts within your master
account, which are accessed as separate URLs. A lot of larger businesses use subdomains to establish branding and focus on separate product lines, because a subdomain creates a separate URL and web presence.

MySQL and PostgreSQL

SQL stands for Structured Query Language. SQL is an international standard in querying and retrieving information from databases. MySQL and Postgre SQL are essentially SQL servers – it responds to requests for information that are written in SQL. You can communicate with MySQL/PostGre using a wide variety of programming languages (PHP being one of the most common).

PostgreSQL

SQL stands for Structured Query Language. SQL is an international standard in querying and retrieving information from databases. PostgreSQL is, like MySQL, essentially an SQL server and database – it responds to requests for information that are written in SQL. You can communicate with PostgreSQL using a wide variety of programming languages, including PHP, Perl, and Python. PostgreSQL is Open Source software and generally free for commercial or personal use.

SSL Shell/Telnet access

SSL stands for Secure Sockets Layer, which is a means of providing encrypted communications on the Internet. CPanel provides you with an online SSL Shell (an application) that allows you to log in to the Linux computer that is your web server and make changes at the server side. You use Telnet (the Internet
standard protocol for remote login) commands through the SSL Shell to activate the web server.

Redirects

The Redirects area allows you to redirect Internet traffics from one web page to another. This is usually used when a web page has been moved to another location.

Web/FTP Stats

The Web / FTP Statistics area presents you with a wide variety of information about your web site, from the latest visitors to a detailed monthly summary of hits, as well as providing an error log. Use the Statistics tools to keep track of what pages are being visited most often, and where they are being referred
from.

Raw Access Logs

You can download the raw access logs that contain all the recorded hit information that your site has received. These logs are only really useful if you have a preferred reporting tool that you prefer to use, rather than the variety of reporting tools presented in this section.

Raw Log Manager

Raw access logs contain all the recorded hit information that your site has received. You can set the Raw Log Manager to archive this information every month and/or delete the previous month’s log at the end of every month.
