Setup the .htaccess file<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For each domain account you would like to setup a custom login page you will need to setup an htaccess file in the domain’s root directory (public_html).<\/span><\/p>\n

Below is the code that would need to be added to the .htaccess file.<\/span><\/p>\n

# This is the code that handles login., cpanel., and webmail.\n            RewriteEngine On\n            RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^login\\. [NC,OR]\n            RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^cpanel\\. [NC,OR]\n            RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^webmail\\. [NC]\n            RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^\/(cgi-sys|rhost_login)\n            RewriteRule ^(.*)$ \/cgi-sys\/login.cgi [NC,L]<\/span><\/pre>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
Creating the custom login page<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

The following are the required lines that must be included in your form<\/strong>. You may style the page as you wish, but the following information must be included.<\/span><\/p>\n

            \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <form action=\"\/cgi-sys\/login.cgi\" method=\"POST\"><\/span>\n<\/pre>\n

            \u00a0 \u00a0 <input class=\"lti\" name=\"user\" value=\"\"><\/span>\n<\/pre>\n

            \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<input class=\"lti\" name=\"pass\" type=\"password\" value=\"\">\n<\/pre>\n
The pass field, the name must be pass and the type must be password. class and value are optional, value should be set to “” if used at all.<\/span><\/p>\n
                   \u00a0 <input type=\"hidden\" name=\"goto_uri\" value=\"\/cpanel\"><\/span>\n<\/pre>\n
The name MUST be goto_uri, and the value MUST be “\/cpanel” including the preceding \/ and the type MUST be hidden. If this field is not present or set properly, the login will not work.<\/span><\/p>\n
            \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <input id=\"login_button\" type=\"submit\" value=\"Login\"><\/span>\n<\/pre>\n
