Hostroute CPanel & WHM

[holmes]

I've got a new reseller account with hostroute and am slowly moving sites over, but, once i've created the new site in WHM i can't access the Cpanel for the newly created site until the domain name propogates across. Is there any way of accessing Cpanel before this as i can't create the database and results in downtime?

Can you not just change your connect info to point to at the old host database? Rather that just <localhost>

This way it will connect where ever the pages are hosted. THen you can swtich the connect info over once the nameservers have propegated.

Just a thought. Php is definately not my strong point

You could access

anydomainontheserver.co.uk/cpanel

and log in with the new details or even just

ipaddress/cpanel

From my experience you don't need to access cpanel on the specific domain you want to log in to

Bingo, hadn't thought of logging on to a different domain, thank you Fraser.

Then went to 123-reg to change the namesever and the fit birds gone from the control panel!!
