Ok I run a site that I would like to setup sub-domains for certain members along with email accounts.

Is there anyway in cPanel to limit the disk space for each sub-domain. Example: http://member1.mydomain.com only has a 5MB disk space limit along with that I will limit his or her email account to 5MB also.

I do have a reseller account if that helps any...does anyone know of a way to do this via cPanel or some other script?


Kind Regards,

Cpanel doesn't allow you to setup these limits. The supposition is that the subdomains are setup as part of the main website and would not need limits. To accomplish this, you will need to set these up as separate accounts in WHM. When doing so, specify the domain as sub.yourdomain.com

Danny,

Doing so through WHM (sub.yourdomain.com) wouldnt that cause the server to think it will be http://www.sub.yourdomain.com? Or to try to make it more clear - wouldnt WHM think that sub.yourdomain.com was a full domain and not actually a SUB-domain?

i tried it last time and it works, however i think it takes about a day or so for the sub domain to work, if i recall it correctly :rolleyes:
