At the present the SiteBuilder user is provided with individual web site password for accessing SiteBuilder Wizard. Administrator is able to select the appropriate web site publishing method (FTP or VPS) and to set corresponding parameters for this type of publishing. The list of allowed hosts for site publishing is indicated in a web site Plan. The number of allowed hosts depends on your SiteBuilder license.
To manage allowed hosts click the Main tab and go to the Allowed Hosts Management screen by clicking the Allowed Hosts Management icon.
On this page, you can see the list of authorized hosts. Here you can activate/deactivate allowed hosts, retrieve IP addresses, add host, add hosts range, assign reseller to the host or delete hosts from the list.
To activate/deactivate/delete hosts and retrieve IPs, check the host(s) which you wish to modify and click one of the corresponding buttons: Activate, Deactivate, Retrieve IPs or Delete.
The Retrieve IPs button serves for getting IP addresses from the alphanumeric names of servers in case they are unknown to the system yet. Users from inactive hosts cannot login to SiteBuilder.
In order to add a new allowed host, click the Add Host button. To see the list of all allowed hosts click Show All Hosts.
If there are more than 6 hosts in the hosts list then you can select how many hosts per page should be displayed. The option Hosts per page 10, 15, 20, All will be displayed at the bottom of the Allowed Hosts screen. You can select 10, 15, 20 or all hosts to be displayed per page by clicking either one of these numbers.
Note: your license can apply limitations to the maximum number of allowed servers.
If you have not exceeded your limit, the form for adding hosts appears. Enter the name of the server to be added and mark the corresponding check box to activate it.
By clicking host in the Host Name column hosting provider is able to assign hosts to resellers.
You can also add a range of hosts to a reseller by clicking the Add Hosts Range button on Allowed Hosts Management screen. It is done in the case the available SiteBuilder hosts have one IP range.
Enter the first host IP in the Host IP - Beginning of Range line, and enter the last host IP in the Host IP - End of Range line. Also you can make this host IPs active by selecting the Active check box. Click Apply.
Example: The following hosts are included in the list of available hosts: "127.0.0.1, 127.0.0.2, 127.0.0.3". And according to reseller's license agreement he or she is allowed to have three hosts. Enter "127.0.0.1" in the Host IP - Beginning of Range line and "127.0.0.3" in the Host IP - End of Range line.
To assign the reseller to the host from the Allowed Hosts Management screen add host or the range of allowed hosts as it was described above. Click this hostname in the Host Name column. On the next screen (see the screenshot above) click the List of assigned resellers tab. Select the check box beside the reseller who is not assigned to this host (minus sign in the In list column) and click the Add reseller to list button. Click Apply.
