In order to check the number of users on your cPanel server, all you need to do is log in to WHM on the server and click on “List accounts”. The page that will open will display all the users on that server and their total number.
Incremental backup enables you to accelerate the process of creating backup copies, after an initial complete server backup has been performed, by sending only modified and new data to the backup repository. A smaller amount of backup data makes for a significantly quicker backup process.
There are three types of SSL certificates, differing in the level of protection they provide and the way they are displayed in the browser.
DV (domain validation) – SSL certificate that protects the domain and its owner. It’s displayed in the form of a padlock + https://name.domain
OV (organization validation) – SSL certificate that verifies and protects company data. It’s displayed in the form of a padlock + https://name.domain
EV (extended validation) – SSL certificate that provides maximum protection. It’s displayed in the browser as a long green bar containing the company name.
In case of “outgrowing” the maximum number of users on a server, your license will need to be upgraded to the next larger package. If the license isn’t upgraded, your access to WHM will be suspended until you upgrade the license or reduce the number of users on that server.
Depending on the selected operating system, you can manage VPS setting using the Remote Desktop (Windows) or SSH (Linux). You can also install a web hosting control system, such as cPanel or CentOS Web Panel. You can access basic options, such as starting, restarting, stopping, selecting an IP address, server name etc. through the MyDataKnox user site.
Reseller web hosting enables you to set up your own web hosting business under your own name. When you apply for a reseller hosting account, you lease a certain amount of SSD disk space and monthly traffic which you can then distribute among your users. You can choose your own account limitations, as well as the price you’ll set for your clients.
A MyDataKnox hosting service provides simple DNS script management for your domain if you’re also a user of our services of VPS, dedicated servers, cloud or you’re leasing a domain with us. The service itself enables you to easily manage DNS scripts without having to arrange your own DNS server infrastructure. The service also comes with access to a control panel for adding and modifying scripts, free backup of all DNS zones and our useful customer support 24/7.
Croatian domains are linked to natural and legal persons, therefore, Carnet requires you to enter your PIN or CRN upon registration of a .hr or .com.hr domain.
If I order web hosting today, how much time will it take for it to be ready to use? If you’re paying with a credit/debit card or using Paypal, your web hosting will be ready momentarily. If you’re paying through online banking, i.e. via bank transaction, we’ll initiate the creation of your web hosting account as soon as the amount appears on our account, or as soon as you send us a payment confirmation. In order to accelerate the process of creating your hosting service following a bank transaction payment, please send us the payment confirmation to our e-mail address info@mydataknox.com.
A dedicated server offers you top-notch performance for the purpose of hosting websites with heavy traffic, web applications, various business applications, such as CRM, ERP systems and many more. In simple terms, you can use a dedicated server for all situations in which you require high-level performance, security and complete control of the server.
cPanel builds on WHM, and, unlike WHM which is designed for the administration of the server and all its accounts, cPanel is a control panel for the end user, i.e. a centre for managing individual hosting accounts.
Some basic benefits of cPanel are:
simple installation of hundreds of different scripts and web applications, such as WordPress, Joomla, various forums, project management systems, etc.
quick e-mail account management and access to an e-mail interface
creation of an FTP account for the purpose of accessing server files
autonomous creation of a backup copy with just a few clicks
easy addition of new domains and creation of subdomains
assignment of a completely free SSL certificate to each domain
an overview of detailed statistical information regarding the number of views of hosted websites
user-friendly management of DNS zones within user accounts
mobile display of the cPanel interface enables account access and management from any part of the world
selection of the preferred PHP version separately for each domain
automated installation of popular CMS systems in just a few clicks
A domain name is arbitrary and you can use any name you prefer, as long as a domain with that name hasn’t already been registered. You can check the availability of your preferred domain here.
You can, by using third-party tools, such as Code Two or IMAP Sync, i.e. manually migrating your user mailbox. You can always contact our support team if you need assistance.

Our R1Soft backup solutions offers some crucial options: BACKUP COPY Whereas conventional backup solutions secure data by storing it on the same server or an external disk, MyDataKnox R1Soft backup keeps your data secure by storing it on enterprise equipment in our data centre. QUICK DISASTER RECOVERY Recover the complete server data without a second thought! Unlike with conventional solutions, MyDataKnox backup eliminates the need for disk partition and installing an operating system before recovering the data from the backup copy. All your files, databases and applications will be restored to the server in perfect shape, like nothing ever happened. HIGH-LEVEL PERFORMANCE Sector-based backup increases bandwidth and reduces the server load. The servers can be completely operational and the effect on the performance during backup creation is minimal. Backup copies can be made at any time of day without interrupting the server processes, even on loaded servers. FAST INCREMENTAL BACKUP Incremental backup can distinguish which disk sectors have been modified since the last backup and will backup only modified and new data. A smaller amount of backup data makes for a significantly quicker backup process. HIGH-LEVEL SECURITY All data is stored and recovered under strong encryption.
PHP Selector enables your users to select a specific PHP version that they require for their hosting account. PHP Selector provides premium flexibility by offering the users all the popular versions of PHP, which enables them to keep old scripts without the obligation to use newer PHP versions or change the code of their website. The administrator manages PHP versions available to the users, as well as all available PHP extensions, and each user selects a PHP version using the interface and activates/deactivates extensions as necessary.
From the perspective of the end user, the main difference between web hosting and a VPS/dedicated server is the fact that a web hosting service is designed and optimised solely for the purpose of serving websites within a leased hosting package and comes with certain limitations regarding options such as installing your own applications, whereas a VPS server, as well as a dedicated server, is configurable and can be used for a variety of things, such as installing your own business solutions (CRM and ERP systems, cash register systems, etc.).
Most domain extensions contain up to 60 characters, but keep in mind that a domain name should not be that long. The point is for the domain to describe you or your activity in as few characters as possible.
In order to help you find your way around the names of the services and the differences between them, we’ve prepared a comprehensive description below. WEB HOSTING Web hosting, sometimes known as shared hosting, is the most common form of hosting on the market and meets the requirements of most users regarding website hosting. By leasing a web hosting account, you’ll get access to your own separate account on a server which hosts many other users as well, and all of you share its complete resources. Hosting websites using shared web hosting has a few crucial advantages in comparison to VPS or a dedicated server:
when you get an account, everything is ready for use
you can easily install web applications using the cPanel interface
you can easily open e-mail addresses
the server is prepared solely for a web hosting service and is especially optimised for premium performance
general simple management
affordably priced web hosting packages.
Web hosting also has a few drawbacks, such as:
no advanced system configuration (e.g. MySQL)
resource limitation (every account has a specific amount of resources – CPU/RAM)
more advanced users, such as web shops with a large number of visitors, soon outgrow the options provided by a shared environment.
DEDICATED SERVER Dedicated hosting, or a dedicated server, is the complete opposite of a web hosting service.
Instead of using server resources together with other users, in a dedicated server, you have total access to the system and you can configure and use the server any way you want. Sounds great, and it is, however, it costs considerably more than an annual subscription to a hosting account. This type of hosting is intended for specific users, those that require dedicated resources, such as:
users with complex web applications with a large number of visitors
companies that use the servers for business applications and databases
users that require specific settings or virtualization.
VPS SERVER
VPS servers are a type of service which falls somewhere between web hosting and dedicated servers. It’s a service which enables you to use dedicated resources (CPU, RAM, storage) and it’s intended for users that outgrow a web hosting environment, but still don’t require the power of an entire dedicated server. VPS offers you many of the same advantages as a dedicated server at only a fraction of the price of one. Therefore, VPS gives you full administrator access and you can configure the server any way you like, just like with a dedicated server.
In order to present the similarities and differences of the aforementioned MyDataKnox services in the form of a clear overview, we’ve prepared a small table of their basic features.

Microsoft Outlook linked to POP3/IMAP enables every user to manage their personal information (messages, maps, contacts, notes, tasks, calendars, rules and notifications), but doesn’t allow sharing them with anyone nor synchronization with other user devices. MyDataKnox Hosted Exchange business e-mail enables you to share all that information within a group of users, which enables you to respond to requests more quickly, to find files and e-mail messages momentarily and to improve communication with your employees, clients and suppliers. It also enables every user to access their data using any kind of Internet connection, thus keeping your team connected no matter where they are.
If you require multiple hosting accounts with separate cPanel access and want to be able to create cPanel hosting accounts by yourself, reseller hosting is the right choice.
Redirecting an existing domain to MyDataKnox servers is performed by changing nameserver scripts. The changes are executed in the system of the registry where the domain is registered. If you decide to redirect your domain registered elsewhere to your MyDataKnox hosting account, you need to change the nameservers of the domain to: NS1.MYDATAKNOX.COM (185.15.29.210) NS2.MYDATAKNOX.COM (185.15.29.211)
We’ll provide you with a free trial period of 48 hours. All you need to do is contact us and request a trial period or mention that you want to try out the service when you’re finishing your order.
If you’re paying using a credit/debit card or PayPal, the service will be ready momentarily upon payment. If you’re paying via bank transaction, it can take up to 48 hours, however, you send us the payment confirmation in order to speed up the activation process.
The EPP key, also known as Authorization code, is one of the safeguards against unauthorized transfers of domain name registrations. The EPP key is required when transferring .com, .org, .net and various other domain names. You cannot initiate a domain name transfer for these domain extensions without an EPP code.
Simply put, a domain is the address of your websites. Web hosting is a service of placing website on servers that are globally accessible online and which serves your websites to their visitors.
Domain propagation is the time it takes for the changes you execute on the DNS to become visible on the Internet. The propagation itself takes from a few minutes up to 24 hours, depending on the DNS cache of your Internet provider.
Yes. The total number of users on a cPanel server, in terms of licenses, is determined by the number of active and suspended users on that server. Therefore, cPanel checks the number of users on a server and counts them, whether they are active or suspended.
As a reseller, you’re providing support to your own customers; you’re completely in control of the communication with your hosting users – after all, you’re the owner of your business! You’ll be able to create your own website, set up hosting packages and pricing, install scripts and modify certain aspects of user websites. Naturally, MyDataKnox support is available 24 hours a days for its reseller customers. You can contact us at any time regarding high-level technical or server issues. MyDataKnox is responsible for uninterrupted functioning and stability of the reseller hosting service, and we’ll always be glad to help you with questions related to the functioning of the server.
There are two types of .hr domains: free and paid domains.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A FREE AND A PAID .HR DOMAIN A free .hr domain can be registered by all legal entities (companies, associations and other legal persons) and self-employed natural persons (tradesmen, medical doctors, attorneys, artists, etc.) based in the Republic of Croatia. The user has a right to one free domain which they can register through an online registration system at: https://www.dns.hr/portal/register Paid .hr domains can be registered by all legal and natural persons based in the Republic of Croatia which hold an “OIB” (Croatian Personal Identification Number), as well as legal persons based in the EU which hold a VAT ID. You can register a paid .hr domain here.
RULES FOR NAMING FREE .HR DOMAINS The name of a domain pertaining to a legal person must contain its registered name, its shortened registered name, an acronym of its name or an abbreviation containing the syllables of a multi-word registered name. The name of a domain pertaining to a self-employed natural person must contain their registered name, their shortened registered name, an acronym of their name, an abbreviation containing the syllables of a multi-word registered name or an indication of their activity, as well as their first name, last name or full name. There are no particular limitations regarding names of paid domains.
A domain transfer starts with a domain transfer order on our website. Upon ordering a transfer, you’ll need an EPP authorization code for most extensions, which you can get from your existing registrar, and the domain must be unlocked for transfer. After you pay for the transfer, which is necessary since a domain is automatically prolonged for a year upon transfer, you’ll confirm the transfer by clicking on a link sent to you by e-mail. Afterwards, it’ll only take a couple of minutes up to a few days, depending on the registrar and the domain extension, until the transfer is complete.
Of course. Upon ordering a VPS service, you select the number of additional IP addresses you require, and, in case you lease multiple addresses, you an easily set one main IP address for your VPS.
A free .hr domain can be registered by all legal entities (companies associations, political parties and other Croatian-based organisations) and natural persons performing a registered business activity (tradesmen, medical doctors, attorneys, artists, etc.). The process of registering a free .hr domain is very simple and performed through Carnet. All you have to do is go to https://domene.hr/portal/register/info-free-hr, click “Register” and follow a few short steps.
The owner of the dedicated servers is MyDataKnox, which means that, in case of a malfunction, our staff are in charge of any repairs and/or component replacement. This also means that our technical staff are in charge of server maintenance, which entails activities that ensure high-quality working conditions.
MySQL is often one of the main problematic areas for hosting companies. Keeping MySQL stable can be tricky, and users sending requests to the base can slow everything down. That’s where MySQL Governor comes in. Its ability to pinpoint problematic users and limit them in real time is unprecedented in the industry as of yet. Offering support to the latest versions of MySQL and MariaDB, CloudLinux is an imperative part of any shared hosting.
Simply put, a domain is the address of your websites. Web hosting is a service of placing website on servers that are globally accessible online and which deliver your websites to their visitors.
Of course. All you need to do is redirect the domain to our nameservers mdns1.mydataknox.com and mdns2.mydataknox.com, and configure the necessary scripts on our user interface for DNS script management.
VPS management requires basic server administrator knowledge. You’ll need it to administrate the operating system you’ll install (Linux or Windows) and configure the applications. If you require VPS, but feel that you lack the technical skills needed to manage a server, we recommend that you take a look at our Premium support service.
