Customer Console
The “Customer Console” link on the left navigation will display the “Add” section by default. In this section, a user can add Virtual and Dedicated Server SMT interfaces inside the SMT interface that the user is logged into, or a user can create a Virtual Host Control Panel for a domain name hosted on the user’s account.
Virtual and Dedicated Servers
In this section, a user can add additional domains that are not virtual hosts, into the management interface of the SMT 4.1. For example, if a user has another account hosted with AIT (another Dedicated server, for instance), adding the domain name in the filed provided will provide a fast and easy link from the SMT that the user is currently in to the SMT of the Dedicated server.
Create a Virtual Host Control Panel
To create a Virtual Host Control panel, otherwise referred to as a “vpanel,” click the “Display list” button under the directory name (See Figure 6-1 below). This will display a list of directory names inside of the user’s /www/htdocs directory, along with a list of domain names hosted on that account. Enter the password and confirm it before clicking the “Create vpanel” button to install the vpanel.
Figure 6-1
IMPORTANT NOTE: The username of the vpanel is the “webadmin@domain” where the domain name is the domain you installed the vpanel for. For example, if a user installs a vpanel for a domain name called “test.com”, this is how the user would access the vpanel for test.com:
URL: http://test.com/vpanel/
Username: webadmin@test.com
Password:
This is different than in previous versions of the SMT, so please take note of the change.
Manage (Customer Console)
The section labeled “Manage” under Customer Console allows users to click links directly to the SMT interfaces of other domains (see Virtual and Dedicated Servers or Create a Virtual Host Control Panel for how to add them into the interface). The links inside of this section directly link to the Customer Console for either a virtual host (vpanel) or another Virtual or Dedicated server (SMT) as Figure 6-2 below shows. Not shown in Figure 6-2 are the links for other Virtual and Dedicated Servers.

Web Services
The default view when selecting Web Services is the “Add” view. Under this section, users can manage services used to view web sites, including addition and management of domain names, mirror domains, logs, password protected directories, etc.
Figure 7-1 below shows the default screen when clicking on “Web Services”.
