I am new to direct admin. I have been able to set things up so far that I can ping my nameservers and get a response. I need help in finding how to upload my website to my vps. Now, here's the problem! It seems that I do not have a domain in da although when I search for my domain the system finds it. I cannot ftp files to my domain because it does not exist. I have been able to create reseller packages together with a reseller, which shows up in the system as having data within it. I have tried following instructions within the pages of the da website but, I am at the end of my wits and about to call it a day. Please help?:confused:
 
This is what I've done so far

Here’s what I’ve done so far. It may sound simple but, being a newbie it’s taken me ages to figure out.
1. I edited the server settings in “Administrator Settings” to reflect my hostname and ns1 & ns2.
2. I edited the domain settings in “DNS Administration” to reflect my own DNS’s.

Having done that, when I enter my domain name in the address bar I get “Apache is functioning normally”. I get the same result if I enter ns1.mydomain.com in the address bar. I can create packages and resellers and they will work. What I’m having a hard time figuring out is what or where I’ve gone wrong in setting things up to reflect FTP so that I can upload a website to my own domain. I simply can’t figure it out. I have asked my VPS provides for help but they are as much help as a chocolate hammer would be in hammering a wooden nail into a steel girder. I would really appreciate some help in this otherwise I may as well as just cancel the account.
 
It's likely your domain isn't set up in DirectAdmin.

Start here, follow all links, including the ones at the bottom for resellers and administrators.

Or get rid of your VPS and order a Virtual Private hosting account, where everything is managed for you.
