Introduction

As a server administrator, you may have to transfer clients' websites in which root access is unavailable at the source server, making things a little bit more difficult. However, the cPanel & WHM software have a few features that should help in these situations.

 

Procedure

  1. Access the WHM interface for your server
  2. Navigate to the "Home / Transfers / Transfer or Restore a cPanel Account"
  3. Select "Transfer from Remote cPanel Account."
  4. Enter the server details for the remote server:
  5. You must enter a hostname or IP address of the remote server, the username of the cPanel account to transfer, and the password of the cPanel account to transfer.
  6. If you would like to assign a dedicated IP, select the "Dedicated IP Address" option.
  7. Click "Transfer"
