Hi all,

I have made it so far that all my websites are up and running with DA.
I used to use Plesk. But now I'm in DA.

The problem I have is that the default admin is called "admin" I have made a new administrator called "adminme"
Now, how can I change all my sites and settings from the administrator "admin" to "adminme"

The problem I'm facing is
the account "admin" makes by default a mailbox called [email protected]
No I have 2 domains where the users need to use the mailbox admin

So they have an [email protected] and [email protected]
I could give the the system password but, for obvious reasons I don't think this is the way to go :-)

So, changing the admin to another admin I think this sets the admin@domains free
If I'm wrong please advise me whit the correct solutions for this.
 
Hello,

You'd better create a separate account for every user, you should host your sites under account of admin.
 
Hello,

I think maybe your right.
But, I have made it and setup all accounts under the admin account.

Now, How can I change this?
When I try to create a user. DA ask me which domain.
when I type in the name of the domain. It says domain already exist.

How can I create a user with a domain name which is already in DA? and with all settings?
SO I want to leave a site over to a user.
How is this done
 
It depends on how many domains you've got there. If you've got more than 10 domains, it would take time to finish the task (in this case you'd better write a script or ask somebody to write for free or for a fee); the idea is simple:

1. You create a new account with a fake domain or 3rd level domain based on some of yours, let's say sub1.company.com

2. Then you use in SSH a script:

Code: 
/usr/local/directadmin/scripts/move_domain.sh

3. Remove fake domain.

Note, you'll need manually to move/rename all DBs and fix MySQL credentials for every DB.

P.S. Feel free to contact us, if you need a hand to help you, as some of us here (including me) are ready to give you a commerce service.
 
Please yes, let me know the service fee to get this info done right.
It is only for 3 domains.

I have 19 domains in total but only 3 need to be changed this way.
