When set to "Default" the testing URL produced for all of your client domains will use the following structure conventions (DomainName-com.ServerNumber.ezhostingserver.com).

Nameservers

This area is used to specify any custom nameservers that you wish your clients to use, in the event that you employ vanity name server's (i.e. NS1.yourdomain.com). Otherwise, if left unmodified, yor clients would utilize our "whitelabel" DNs servers of NS1.EZhostingServer.com and NS2.EZHostingserver.com. To enable it you must check the custom name servers box

Footer

These settings will allow you to add custom links to your client's Dashboard so that they can be quickly redirected to sections of your site or to contact email addresses. For Example you can Specify an entry with a Label of "Contact Support and and URL of "support.yourdomain.com" or "mailto:support@yourdomain.com" to direct your clients to your support services.

Permissions Template

If you choose to customize this section, it will allow you to pick and choose what dashboard applications your clients have access to by default. This will allow you to restrict their access to certain dashboard functions such as FTP or other sections.

Account Information Template

These settings specify the structure of the emails generated and sent to your client's when their domain is created. If you wish to add additional details or instructions to for your clients, you can edit the contents to reflect you desired format. Additionally, this section utilizes special Place-Holder variables within the text which are used to place the values of the newly created account. These placeholders are denoted by the use of "[]" around the variable name. These variables can also be moved around, removed, or specified multiple time to generate the email form structure you would prefer.
