So let me explain the problem well: - I have been authorized to be full administrator of VPS by my friend *What I want: - Let's assume I have domain name: n1.com - And I have made subdomains as (*), so website can create any subdomain they want - For example user A, have subdomain: a.n1.com - He wants his domain : aaa.com to be linked to a.n1.com, and display all its content. *The problem: Problem 1) - First I want to note we didn't understand the real reason of problem so we bought another server to test on it some solutions after failure with old one - when I link aaa.com to a.n1.com using cname of subdomain and IP of server I found out that it display page at /var/www/html/ - Instead CPanel/WHM creates the website pages in /home/username/public_html/ - (Keep in mind the server if for multi-sites) - httpd.conf file or other apache files is in control of cpanel/whm so even If I update them, any change by any user or new website added may update them automatically - So I stopped on editing httpd.conf because I figure out it may not be the right solution. - I found that CPanel has API, I didn't read any of it so I don't know if it has a solution for this problem. Problem 2) - it looks the same as first problem, but this one only appeared in new bought server - the subdomain ialso links to /var/www/html/ instead of /home/username/public_html *Note: - Server is on CentOS 6 now *Solutions: - I want to know if there is a good solution available in whm/cpanel so I don't need to code anything or edit the files. - if there is no solution in either, what you recommend me, to see CPanel API or edit Apache files - and in case of Apache files, can you help, so later CPanel doesn't mess with new editings.

  I just found the option in WHM to change from /home/username to /var/www/html/username

  Hello @hjcccompany, Updating the document root of an account to the /var/www/html/ directory is unsupported on cPanel & WHM servers. The discussion on the thread below looks similiar to your request:
