Hi guys,
Is their any mod that can allow a cPanel/WHM reseller to create reseller accounts under their own? Also, any experience with this mod (I don't even know if there is one) would be great to hear about.
Thanks.

It's called Sub reselling and as far as I know it's available in RVSkin

WHMReseller is a solid tool if you know what you're doing and know how to manage resources in order to keep your server load(s) low.

It needs to be done correctly and with caution. You should only host a certain amount of resellers per server because you need to consider growth of each account. Other than that, you should be good to go :)

All these over usage / overselling worries. Gees its no big deal - I would estimate every Host at some point has to migrate accounts becuase of growth. No Web Host knows what its resellers are going to do ahead of time. If the problem arises - simply migrate the worst accounts to another server. There's no downtime involved in this and clients understand - the worst that can happen is their IP changes. If you had them accessing everything via their domain name they probably wouldn't even know you'd moved them.
WHMreseller is fine - there are checks and limits you can place on Master Resellers to keep it all under control.
It really depends on the server admin, not the software.

WHMReseller option seems to be interesting.
Is there any good hosting service provider who are offering WHMReseller option.
We consume good amount of reseller hosting for our growing clients.Monthly budget of $5-$ 10 pm with all other industry standards sepcification are preferred.If JSP/Tomcat is supported than nothing like that

Funny you make it sound like it is not a big deal since you are the seller of the software. The true fact is that it is a big concern. Moving accounts isn't that straight forward and it does cause a lot of inconvenience especially if it is a dynamic site updated several times throughout the day..

You estimated wrong...
If people really want to sell reseller accounts, the best way would be to actually purchase a VPS...

To above post:
No what you're saying is wrong. I was pointing out that even if a server becomes over crowded you can do something about it.
But I want to stress - WHMreseller has only ONE level of reselling, has LIMITS on the number of WHM's each Master Reseller can create, plus it MONITORS all resource usage and REPORTS it to you. WHMreseller is just like VPS, it gives each master reseller a slice of the server (Disk and Bandwidth) and then that master reseller can then go and do what they want with their slice - create both WHM accounts and cPanel accounts.

It'd be easier to take your word for it if your company wasn't the author of WHMReseller :P You shouldn't toot your own horn.

Just like a VPS? That's great, so I guess it controls CPU/RAM and gives out SSH access to only the reseller portion, allows the customer to install their own operating system and control panel too correct?
I really can't believe you are comparing your product to a VPS. You've already had one of your posts deleted for advertising, wasn't that enough of a warning?

Then only one I`m aware of is Beachcomber. Of course there are others, but from the big names they come to mind.
