Automate The Hosting Process?
I am on bluehost.com, I want to automate process for Free Webhosting. To provide ftp account, and sub-domain. But how do I do this without going into Cpanel myself, I tried out PHPHOSTBOT, but I need other information for it to work that I don't have. Any help would be nice.

if you have any PHP knowledge, you could use the cPanel API. Someone has incorperated the API into a small PHP class, which you can easily automate account creations, to even showing how much bandwidth left!http://www.phpclasses.org/browse/package/3534.html
However, if you arn't a coder, you can either get a coder to make you a script, or download something like WHMCS, as this has an automated account creation

I do not think BlueHost will allow you to use your account for reselling - you will need a reseller account to accomplish what you want.

Okay before I try this, this is the problem i had with PHPMYBOT, it required the following after installation was completed:
WHM Login Username
WHM Access Key
My Host bluehost won't provide these and ihostdev needs these I am sure.

I asked bluehost about this. They said it was okay. (reselling)

They probably meant that you reseller their own accounts under your own company name - i.e. you buy another account from them and resell it.
WHM authentication details are provided by a reseller account. Please also keep in mind that most reseller accounts will NOT allow you to use it to provide a free web hosting service.

Bluehost doesn't offer reseller accounts. They only offer one universal shared hosting plan.

That is exactly what I meant - you buy another shared account from them and you then resell that account under your name.

Can you not get in trouble with them if they find out?

You will please need to ask them - I am merely assuming this was what was meant when BlueHost communicated with the thread - starter.
