Cpanel Interface Layout
Introduction
This site is an usefull for Frequently Asked Questions,
The control panel is a web-based interface that provides a quick and intuitive
interface to aspects of your server that would otherwise be handled by editing arcane text
configuration files.
The control panel also implements some rudimentary replications of functions
provided by other tools, such as file upload and reading email. The control panel is
really a HTML interface to several individual applications running on the server. While
most functions on the control panel can be done more efficiently through other means, the
cpanel provides centralized fast access to all the major functions of site management,
without requiring any special software.

Accessing the Cpanel
The control panel requires at least a 3.x version browser - it must be capable
of frames and tables. We recommend Netscape or Internet Explorer, version 3 or higher.
There are known problems with the way AOL's built in web browser displays interactive
pages such as the cpanel. To log into cpanel - open this URL in your browser:
http://domain.com/cpanel/login/
(where 'domain.com' is
replaced by your domain name)
* At the login
prompt, enter your usual account login ID and password.
- Your control panel will now load*
