It allows you to manage all aspects of a hosting account, including email, FTP, CGI and scripting, your account password, site statistics, access logs and many other features. SiteAdmin also includes a web-based file manager that can serve as a substitute for FTP when performing simple site management tasks.
Note: Up until November 2006, SiteAdmin was called "NetAdmin". (

[edit] Accessing SiteAdmin
To get started with SiteAdmin, login to your Site5 Backstage account and click the SiteAdmin tab.
Select the site that you would like to manage (unless you have a MultiSite™ enabled account, you will probably only have one site listed) and you will be taken to that site's SiteAdmin interface, as shown in these thumbnails.
[edit] What ports should I have open on my firewall to access the control panel and webmail features?
You should have the following ports open to use the control panel and/or webmail. Blocking these ports may cause page not found errors or refuse to allow authentication for access to a feature;
- 2082 (non-SSL control panel port — using
http://) - 2083 (SSL control panel port — using
https://) - 2095 (non SSL webmail port)
- 2096 (SSL webmail port)
Note: Be sure you use your IP address in place of the domain, if your domain is not yet pointing to our services.
Note: If you are behind a corporate firewall and need to access your control panel or webmail on the default web port (80), you should look into CpanelProxy for a solution. While we don't officially support this script, people have reported it solves their problems if they are behind a firewall that they don't control.
