1st time reseller questions

[Disciple]

I just got approved for my reseller account today. Now I have some very basic questions.

I just finished a flash tutorial entitled "Running the Initial Setup (Using The Wizard) in WHM" but I noticed that my WHM does not have this "first timer" wizard so I guess I will need to figure out how to setup the defaults myself.

How do I set up my primary domain / account? I thought I would ask here but if I should submit a support ticket please let me know & I will do so.

I want to setup & move another 3 domains that I own over to the new hosting account (here). I was thinking of doing it in this order:

1) How do I setup the nameservers as "mydomain.com"? Should I do this first?
2) Then I go to my register/s & point all the domains to nameserver: "mydomain.com"?
3) Then I set up accounts using this method: http://forums.dathorn.com/showthread.php?t=61

After that all should be sweet? Have I got it right?

thanks for your help.

Not so fast =^)

Disciple, ya gotta look through as many forum posts first. There is too much good 'n' useful stuff in there. I'd recommend that you read the posts and comments on the forums before you jump in.

OK I have looked around & from what I can gather I need to have "server configuration" button which is supposed to be in the WHM contol panel. Where do I setup my domains? I don't have access to server configurations as stated in the WHM documentation.

For our main (default) domain name do I just set up a new account? Or is there something else I should do?

Thanks.

You have to create packages in WHM FIRST before you can add doamins, your packages will allow you to have any size you want up to the size of your reseller package

Create a few packages to start and play with it, that way you will get the feel of it all.
Setyou your domains to come your your dns address here at dathorn and then you can see how it all comes together .....

I want to set up my default account so would I do it in this order?:

1) add a package
2) add an account
3) add private nameservers for that account - which I want to be the default nameserver that all my clients use.
4) go to my register & point to the new nameserver.

Have I got it right now? Sorry I do feel a bit stupid
