How to Manage Reseller Privileges in WHM

How to Manage Reseller Privileges in WHM?

If you have created sub-reseller accounts, you can control exactly which WHM features and actions they can perform using the Reseller Center in WHM. This prevents sub-resellers from doing things outside their scope.

Access Reseller Center

1. Login to WHM.
2. Go to Resellers → Reseller Center.
3. Select the sub-reseller username from the dropdown.

Edit Reseller Privileges

1. Click Edit Privileges for the selected sub-reseller.
2. You can grant or revoke access to specific WHM functions:
   • Create Accounts
   • Modify Accounts
   • Suspend / Unsuspend Accounts
   • Terminate Accounts
   • Change Passwords
   • View Bandwidth Usage
   • DNS Zone Management
   • Allow Overselling (grant only if trusted)
   • Kill Processes (restricted to trusted resellers)
3. Click Save.

Set Resource Limits for Sub-Resellers

1. In Reseller Center, click Edit Resource Limits.
2. Set:
   • Maximum Disk Space: Total disk the sub-reseller can allocate across their accounts.
   • Maximum Bandwidth: Total bandwidth allocation.
   • Maximum Accounts: How many cPanel accounts they can create.
3. Click Save.

Best Practice: Start sub-resellers with limited privileges and expand their access gradually as trust is established. Never grant terminate privileges until you are confident in their judgment.
