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.
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.
Starting in 2025, a condition for successful registration of .hr and .com.hr domains is verification of the domain owner’s data, which means that the user is required to provide evidence that the owner’s data entered when ordering the domain is correct. You can read details about the verification process below.
Why do I have to prove that my information is correct?
According to the Cybersecurity Act , published on February 7, 2024, the Registry and registrars of .hr domains are obliged to determine the exact identity of domain users during registration based on secure and credible systems and data sources, i.e. to verify users.
How is verification done?
The verification process in MyDataKnox is performed after payment of the offer upon completion of the domain order.
After paying for the offer, the MyDataKnox system starts a verification process consisting of three steps:
You will receive an email to your email address with a link to verify your ordered .hr and .com.hr domains.
When opening the link, you are allowed to select the document you want to attach as proof of identity.
After you attach the document, a PDF statement will be generated with an overview of your information as the domain owner and the document attached in the previous step.
By clicking the confirm button, your verification is saved in the MyDataKnox system.
MyDataKnox support confirms or rejects the verification.
If the verification is confirmed, your domain is registered and the verification process is complete. In case of verification rejection, you will receive an email stating the reason for the rejection and a new link to repeat the verification process.
What documents can I use for verification?
The attached document must be one of the following:
PERSONS
ID card (both sides)
passport
certificate of residence issued by the competent authority (digitally signed or stamped)
driver’s license
a statement by a natural person digitally signed with a verified digital signature (with the stated purpose and data: name, surname, personal identification number)
LEGAL ENTITIES
ID card of the person authorized to represent the legal entity
passport of the person authorized to represent the legal entity
certificate of residence issued by a competent authority (digitally signed or stamped) of the person authorized to represent the legal entity
driver’s license of the person authorized to represent the legal entity
statement of the person authorized to represent the legal entity digitally signed with a verified digital signature (with the stated purpose and data: name, surname, OIB/VAT)
document or statement with the signature and seal of the legal entity (for the stated purpose, it is necessary to provide information about the legal entity: name, OIB/VAT)
Frequently asked questions
What if I don’t verify my identity? In case of unsuccessful verification, MyDataKnox will refund the amount paid for the domain, and the domain will not be registered.
I clicked on the verification link, but I got the message “Your verification token has expired” If you see a token expiration message, it means that more than 72 hours have passed since the verification email was sent and you need to request a new verification. Simply click on the “Request New Verification” button and the process will start over
I attached a document, but I received the message “Invalid file format. Allowed formats are: …” If you see this message, it means that the attached document is in a format that we do not accept. Simply return to the verification form and attach the document in an allowed format. Allowed formats are listed in the document submission form, and certainly include JPEG and PNG formats.
What information do I need to confirm during the verification process? The information that is confirmed by your acceptance of the information on the generated PDF statement is: Name and surname, address, e-mail address, OIB (Croatian Tax Identification Number), and phone number. All of the above information is required for the successful registration of .hr and .com.hr domains.
The MyDataKnox Veeam Cloud Connect Backup service ensures a backup repository on a remote location, within the MyDataKnox cloud, that you can access through your Veeam console.
* The nameservers for MyDataKnox DNS service are not the same as the nameservers for web hosting packages.
If you want to point a domain to your MyDataKnox web hosting package, follow these instructions.
Nameservers of MyDataKnox DNS service for users are:
mdns1.mydataknox.com
mdns2.mydataknox.com
By directing the domain to the specified nameservers, you will be able to manage the DNS records for the same, if the domain is registered or transferred within the MyDataKnox system.
Some important features of JetBackup for cPanel are:
Incremental data backup After creating the first backup copy which encompasses the entire cPanel account, every subsequent copy will solely include the differences in relation to the previous version, which accelerates the process of creating backup copies and enables the user to review the stores changes in detail.
Storage of copies to multiple locations JetBackup enables several technical options for the purpose of creating backup copies, such as storing copies to a remote server using FTP ili SSH, storing them on Dropbox or Amazon S3.
Recovery of individual files from backup copies In case you don’t need to recover the entire cPanel account, the transparent interface of JetBackup enables you to recover individual files, e-mail messages, databases, DNS scripts and a lot more with just a few clicks.
Full CloudLinux support With the full support of JetBackup for CloudLinux, you can place the process of creating backup copies within the LVE, which makes the backup copy be created within individually assigned resources for each cPanel user. If you don’t have CloudLinux, you can still optimise the process of creating backup copies by using resync IO limitations and assign priority to services.
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)
MyDataKnox provides support with server configuration and maintenance; however, the applications you install on the server are not included in our support area. You can contact our support team via telephone or by sending an inquiry using your MyDataKnox user control panel. Our technical staff will act in case of hardware issues, and they can also assist you with VPS configuration to a certain degree. However, our support team can’t help you with your software configuration on VPS, such as with ERP, CRM applications and other business applications that are unrelated with the service itself.
SSL certificates are usually selected on the basis of the type of website and your visitors. If credit/debit card numbers and other valuable information is entered anywhere on your website, we recommend the EV certificate, which provides maximum protection and security. The DV certificate is usually acceptable for any other requirements.
All reseller web hosting accounts include two separate control panels:
a Reseller Web Host Manager (WHM) which enables you to create accounts for your users and manage them
a cPanel control panel for your users which enables them to easily create and/or manage websites and e-mail.
WHM makes it very simple to manage and create various subaccounts. You will be able to:
set up cPanel for each user
limit user SSD storage and/or bandwidth
change user passwords, and perform many other actions.
Your users will be responsible for setting up their websites and e-mail, as well as managing their accounts, which they can perform using the cPanel control panel. cPanel will enable them to create and manage their websites and e-mail accounts without your intervention.
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.
Why do I need web hosting? In order for your domain to display content, the content (web pages, images, etc.) must be located on a server which executed your website’s code and serves its contents. A web hosting service provides access to such a server.
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.
Before your domain expires, if it’s active, you’ll receive an automatic offer to renew it 30 days before it expires. You’ll also receive several reminders for domain renewal payment.
If you want to use our services, such as VPS hosting, you need a DNS server in order to connect your domain to the leased server. Considering that spending time and money on buying a DNS server or creating your own DNS solution is not cost-effective, MyDataKnox offers you a read-made solution completely free of charge, which takes care of the cost problem.
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.
An SSL certificate is a cryptographic protocol which increases the level of online data security between visitors of a website and the server where the site is located. In other words, SSL is the encryption of data from readable text to coded text which can be read only by using a decoding key. This enables secure communication and protection of the user’s confidential personal information and financial data.
The MyDataKnox R1Soft backup service enables you to create a backup copy of up to two servers. You’ll select the number of servers that you wish to link to the service (number of agents) upon placing your order.
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.
In order to present you with a simple overview of the differences between JetBackup and cPanel backup, we’ve created a table displaying the crucial differences:

CloudLinux support – process of creating a backup copy using LVE
You can order the Veeam Cloud Connect Backup service here. You’ll select the size of your cloud backup storage space and the number of servers you wish to backup.
The MyDataKnox hosting service is used by means of our user-friendly and transparent user interface. Script editing is quick and simple, and daily backup copies eliminate the threat of any errors that might cause operation shutdown of leased servers linked to the DNS scripts.
To use the MyDataKnox DNS hosting service, the domain must be pointed to our user nameservers:
Cloudlinux OS offers great stability-related features:
LVE virtual environment LVE is a kernel-level technology developed by the CloudLinux team which operates in a way similar to container virtualization. The LVE Manager enables you to maintain precise control over your server’s resources, including CPU, IO, memory, inodes, the number of processes and connections that each individual cPanel account can use. Thanks to CloudLinux, you can ensure for your customers the resources they leased without depriving other users from their resources.
MySQL Governor 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 for the latest versions of MySQL and MariaDB, CloudLinux is an imperative part of any shared hosting.
CageFS CageFS is a virtualized file system which isolates every user and makes them invisible to each other within the system. CageFS prevents a great number of attacks, including most attacks performed through privilege escalation.
PHP Selector Enable 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. You are in charge of managing the PHP versions that are available to the users, as well as all available PHP extensions.
Mod_lsapi Faster than any other way of serving PHP using an Apache server, while also being compatible with MPM Worker and not requiring configuration. It support PHP settings through .htacess and is completely compatible with PHP Selector.
SecureLinks A kernel-level technology that prevents all known symlink attacks. This significantly increases the server’s security level and prevents hostile users from creating symbolic links between files.
All your data is stored in the MyDataKnox cloud within our own data centre in Jastrebarsko, Croatia. This ensures a faster response and a support service that can react quickly.
Every reseller hosting package enables you to add your own branding elements (logo, contact information, your own nameserver domains). In fact, your users never even need to know that you’re a MyDataKnox user. You can contact our customer support for any help with branding you might need. We’ll be glad to help.

The duration of a domain transfer can be divided into two groups:
.hr i com.hr domains The transfer of these domain extensions is the quickest. Prior to the transfer, the current registrar of the domain must unlock it for transfer, and an order for transfer must be placed with MyDataKnox. After the payment is complete, you’ll receive an e-mail containing a link for transfer confirmation. As soon as you click on the link in the e-mail and confirm the transfer, it should be executed in a matter of minutes.
.com, .net, .org, .biz, .info and other extensions The transfer of these domains takes 5 to 7 days. Prior to the transfer, the current registrar of the domain must unlock it for transfer and request an EPP authorization code which enables the transfer. After you’ve received the EPP code, you can place a domain transfer order with MyDataKnox. After the payment is complete, you’ll receive an e-mail containing a link for transfer confirmation. As soon as you click on the link in the e-mail, the process of transferring the domain from your previous registrar to MyDataKnox will start. It usually takes up to 7 days for the transfer to be completed. If you want to transfer your domain to MyDataKnox, you can start the process here
There are a few factors that indicate that it’s time to get a VPS:
YOU’RE CONCERNED WITH SECURITY If you require additional security options, such as improved webpage stability, autonomous firewall management, privacy for online payments or similar needs, it’s time to consider VPS hosting.
THE NUMBER OF VISITORS OF YOUR WEBSITES IS RAPIDLY INCREASING When they’re still new, most websites require only the existing MyDataKnox web hosting packages. It often happens that the number of visitors of a website increases so much that the limited resources of a web hosting package become insufficient for interrupted site functioning. That’s definitely a time to transfer to VPS.
WEBSITES ARE NOTICEABLY SLOW It should be pointed out that the web hosting service is not intended for web applications that require more resources, such as increased RAM. As the amount of content and the number of users on your websites increase, the performance is bound to diminish, despite the option of buying more memory capacity and an additional CPU core, since there are still limitations in place for every user in order to ensure the stability of the service for all users on the shared hosting. Transferring to VPS solves all the aforementioned issues, since you’re using dedicated resources, and in case you need extra resources, you can easily upgrade your VPS with a greater number of CPU cores, more disk space or more RAM. MyDataKnox VPS servers are located at our Tier3-category data centre and driven by hardware based on next-generation Intel Xeon processors.
YOU HAVE A WEB SHOP If you run a web shop, especially if it’s visited by a large number of users, you should consider a VPS server. In case you’re wondering why, it’s simple – a VPS server provides you with a secure environment that you can manage yourself. Online payment in itself is something that requires privacy and full control over the service.
YOU NEED TO INSTALL YOUR OWN APPLICATIONS Web hosting is a great choice for website owners, but what happens when you need a server where you can install business applications such as ERP, or specialised databases? To initiate those kind of applications, you need a server with its own OS. Many companies need to install a professional software on a server which their employees can access via a remote desktop, but they don’t find the price of a dedicated server cost-effective. In that case, a VPS server is a great solution, since it enables the installation of the necessary applications on the server, including full control over the server and its resources.
YOUR BUDGET IS LIMITED Even though dedicated servers are ideal for businesses, the price is also an important factor. If you don’t require the full power of an entire server, a VPS server is the ideal choice, while also being considerably cheaper than a dedicated server.
YOU DEVELOP YOUR OWN SOFTWARE The users of VPS services are often developers who require a private work environment which can be accessed from any part of the world. VPS server development enables simple and smooth work according to your own rules, especially with our cloud backup service which safeguards your data on a daily basis.
The Veeam Cloud Connect Backup service is intended for existing users of Veeam backup and replication that require an off-site storage space for their backup copies.
VPS is, simply put, an acronym that stands for Virtual Private Server. In short, VPS utilizes virtualization technology which enables “fragmentation” of a single powerful server into several virtual ones. Each of those virtual servers acts as a complete physical server and that’s what makes VPS such an important service. The word “private” indicates that those resources are reserved for you, therefore, you’re not sharing memory, CPU power or data with other users.
You can change the operating system of your VPS at any time through your MyDataKnox user website for server management. Bear in mind that you can install any operating system on a Windows VPS server, whereas there is no option of installing a Windows Server operating system on a Linux VPS server.
Generally speaking, content migration is your responsibility, however, our support team will execute the migration for you if it involves transferring content from one cPanel to another, or from one CentOS Web Panel to another. You are free to contact our support team regarding anything else and if your need specific answers.
MyDataKnox doesn’t pose any limitations regarding the type of software you use on your server, as long as the software in question complies with our Terms of Service.
If you’re ordering or already have a hosting account with MyDataKnox and you already have a registered free .hr domain that you want to use, follow the steps described below:
Enter the name of the .hr domain that you wish to redirect to MyDataKnox.
Choose your role related to the domain (owner, technician or administrator) and click “Send”. Afterwards, you’ll receive an e-mail providing you with authorized access to the domain administration website.
Click on the link indicated in the e-mail and under “DNS scripts” enter the following MyDataKnox nameservers: NS1.MYDATAKNOX.COM NS2.MYDATAKNOX.COM
All domain-related options, including management, are at our disposal at the MyDataKnox user portal. You can access the user portal by signing up or logging in.
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 domain name precedes the extension and it’s the part of the domain that makes a website unique, and, by analogy, a company, an individual, a project, etc. A simple example would be “mydataknox” as our domain name. Domain extensions are related to countries, business operations, activities, etc. Am example of a country-related extension would be “.hr”, which signifies that the domain is related to Croatia. Some examples of business extensions are “.biz”, “.org” and “.com”. Apart from the previously mentioned extensions, there are many others that cover a wide variety of areas, from professions and services to hobbies. Some examples of such topical extensions are, among others, “.apartments”, “.fitness”, “.pizza”, and “.news”.
All messages that go through the Hosted Exchange e-mail service are checked and cleared of spam (inbox and outbox) and malicious code using cutting-edge antivirus solutions. Nevertheless, we also recommend using your own antivirus computer software.
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.
