After you have received the welcome e-mail. you can access it at: http://xx.xx.xx.xx:2086 Where xx.xx.xx.xx is your server's primary IP address Username/Password information for the control panel are the following:

Username: root

If you are unable to access your http://xx.xx.xx.xx:2086/ page, please make sure the firewall isn't blocking the port.

You can make sure this isn't happening by running: iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 2086 -j ACCEPT && /etc/init.d/iptables save If it still doesn't load,

try running: iptables -F && /etc/init.d/iptables save Licensing Error(s)

If you receive any 'License Invalid' or any other kind of licensing error(s), please try running: /usr/local/cpanel/cpkeyclt This will refresh your license key with cPanel Inc.

If you still have issues please feel free to contact support at Buyhttp after logging in http://account.buyhttp.com/index.php
