your domain to HyWS to use our hosting, if you have a domain name already

receive the welcome email containing our 'Nameservers', you login at your domain
registrar and set the nameservers, then the Internet knows to find your website
on HyWS servers.
I want to transfer my Domain to HyWS, where is the 'Transfer
Secret'?
You get the 'Transfer Secret' from your existing
domain registrar, normally it will be in their domain
control panel, please ask them or see their FAQ for
details.!
Do you provide a shared
SSL Certificate on the server?
Yes, every HyWS server has it's own SSL certificate
installed, saving you the cost of buying your own
(normally about US$79). To use the shared SSL all
you have to do is point your visitors to https://your.servername.com/~username/ Please see your welcome email
for your server and username.
How to I login to my control panel?
The Control Panel (cPanel) is used to configure the
features of your HyWS hosting account, to log into
your cPanel you can use either the IP address or your
domain name followed by :2082, for example:
http://12.34.56.789:2082
or http://www.yourdomain.com:2082
(after DNS propagates)
