Smile Multiple cPanel Logins

This question has probably been asked and addressed before but I've looked for it and cant find it so here it is:

Is there any way to create more cpanel logins for our own domain, and limit what options each user/login is allowed to use?

For example, if i want my brother to edit SOME parts of my website, as in 1 or 2 mySQL databases but not ALL of them...

Just a suggestion for surpass to look into... it would be nice!!

The only way to do that would be to have a reseller account. This allows you to create a cPanel login for each domain.

ya except he wants to limit what access cpanel gives on a particular domain, not give him his own cpanel.

CPanel only allows one login account.

If you just want to give him access to one or two databases, why not install a seperate copy of phpMyAdmin? You can limit it to one database... Just make to installs. Or give him remote IP access so he can use SQLyog or HeidiSQL to manage it from his desktop?

Of course if there's other things, it depends on what they are if you can get away without giving CPanel access.

Sorry for bringing up a fairly old topic, but I thought it'd be best then making a new.
How do I go about making more then one cpanel login?
Like for my main account?
I tried it by going to "create a new account" and it said I coulden't do that.
Thanks.

If you want to give them access to a sub-domain, you could enter the_subdomain.yourdomain.com in the domain to host box.
But you cannot have multiple logins for one account
