can you have private cpanel?

| Hello again
I tried to search for answers here but couldn't come up with any.
Right now I've just finished setting up my billing system and domain reseller accounts in a sandbox environment. However I've noticed accounts I've created when logging in cpanel it goes back to my web hosts domain name.
So I was wondering if you can mask that/replace it with my domain name instead? kind of like private nameservers?
Thanks in advance for any helpful replies.

| Are you saying that the cPanel URL automatically turns into something like http://www.xyzhost.com:2082/ ?
If so, you'll need to contact your host and ask them to turn off that feature in cPanel.

| Yeah it turns into my hosts domain name instead of my domain name.
Will that cost extra or is it a standard request?

Depends on the attitude of the host.

Exactly! To the best of my knowledge, this isn't something that they can enable/disable on a site-by-site basis.
If this is something that's important to you, you might want to prepare yourself to find a new host.

| You could try to load the cPanel URL in an iframe that resides on your domain.

| Yeah I'll have to look at different solutions like the iframe suggestion. Thanks for the input everyone

| Generally if a reseller hosting provider knows what they are doing (or cares enough) they will set up a generic domain (such as servername.yourhostedcpanel.com) so that when they go to the cPanel it shows up something generic.
People who are "in the know" can still generally tell that you're reselling but most people won't be the wiser.
