:wave: Hi guys, I am totally newbie and not familiar at all about cpanel.
I am about to install cpanel on my home server and need someone who can
guide me to install cpanel. The information given at cpanel website was not very clear for me. So I hope webmaster out there can share their knowledge with me. :beer:

To install WebHost Manager



Make sure you are logged in as root.

# cd /home

# wget http://layer1.cpanel.net/latest

Note: For FreeBSD, you need to download and untar the latest installer package from http://www.cpanel.net/.

# sh latest



The installer has now started, and will take between 30 and 60 minutes depending on your machine. If you are asked any questions press the Enter key, or q if there is no default. After the installation is complete, you need to setup WebHost Manager - refer to Logging on for the First Time for more information.



NOTE: You must be on a stable internet connect to install cPanel. If your shell session disconnects during the installation of cPanel, the installation will be aborted. You can restart the installation by using "sh latest" again however, we recommend reformatting your machine and starting over to ensure there are no problems with the installation.
Seems pretty straightforward to me

You must have a dedicated IP first to install even just the demo version.
