about dedi
when you buy a dedi, you gotta pay for cpanel/whm ??
what exactly are you paying for? what do you get if you dont pay for them? isnt there a one-off fee instead of a monthly one? how would i manage my site if i dont pay for it?

Moving to the dedicated board....
You do need to pay for cpanel/whm. The will give you cPanel and WHM. Without paying for it, you do not get it. The one time fee for cPanel from cpanel.net is $1250.00. A one year fee is $450.00. Surpass offers it at $30 a month.

cPanel/WHM is a addon to your server for $30/month. You can find demos of cPanel and WHM (WebHost Manager) on the Surpass Dedicated page (near bottom).
cPanel/WHM will help you manage and control domains, accounts, provide hosting for others, manage some parts of server, etc. And, you are paying for a cPanel/WHM license, meaning you can actually setup not only cPanels, but WHMs as well. About how to manage your server without this license, I am not sure about that. EDIT: If you do know about the cPanel/WHM thing ... then ignore me explaning it to you ha.

If you are planning on hosting people, you'll definetly want to use cp/whm. There are alternatives out there such as Plesk and Ensim, but in my experience, they are both the devil.
