Adding resellers in WHM. Is there an easier way?
I am fed up with the current way I add resellers. It is getting to troublesome, especially with the rate of reseller orders growing and growing.
Currently, in WHM, to add a reseller by resource usage (MCHOST, SPLASHOST, DIATONE Type plans). I have to create a small, 10MB account for administration, so that they can add domains/accounts from it. Then, I set them up as a reseller through the reseller center. Currently, I am having to name them things such as r1024, r1025, r1026, etc. and not the domain names they requested, because if I used the domain names they wanted, they couldnt add them themselves later. I have to use little small administreation accounts like this because there is nothing where I can make just a 'reseller account' in whm. If I created an account with 1GB of space and 12GB of transfer, then it would all be for that account, and not the accounts they add. I am sure that mchost and splashost, especially because of their extreme popularity, have found easier ways to do this. If one of them, or some other knowledgable person could help me out, and show me a better, more efficent way of doing this, it would be greatly appreciated.
BY the way, I already put in a feature request at http://support.cpanel.net/obb/read.php?TID=1854 - haven't seen any changes yet.. If you feel like this feature would help you to, post on the cpanel forums, and maybe we can get nick to change things.
