How can I login using SSH I have downloaded PenguiNet but it keep asking for a username and password which I don't have should I have a username and password. All I have is 2 IPs and a password.

thanks in advance

You can use a username "root" and the password would be your root password.

To make nameservers for a certain domain name first create the account, then you would login into /var/named.
There you will see a file called yourdomain.com.db (yourdomain=account domain name)
Edit that file and scroll all the way down and put type this in

ns 14400 IN A 6.6.6.6
ns2 14400 IN A 5.5.5.5

Use the IP addresses you wish to add to that domain name.

Restart BIND

/etc/rc.d/init.d/named

Scroll down in WHM and there is an option to add an IP address "Add a New IP Address".
Go there, put the ip in, then the netmask click "Do it" and you done.
