This means we do not allow remotely hosted domains to simply be added to cPanel, as this would allow you to add any domain name, regardless of where it's actually registered. This can open up many options for abuse, including intercepting mail or spoofing email addresses. How do I add a remote domain? When you add a Domain into cPanel, this will check for the following: If the Domain points to the server you're adding it to by checking the A record. If the Domain is using the Krystal Nameservers (Internal link opens in new tab). In most cases, your domain will already point to Krystal and the verification steps above will authorise you to add the domain. Sometimes you may need to add a domain to your cPanel account without pointing it to us first. To do this, you can add the Following TXT record to the existing Domain's DNS provider: Shared Hosting Customers : (Amethyst, Ruby, Emerald, Sapphire, Diamond, Tanzanite) Host: @ Type: TXT Value: krystal-domain-verification Resellers: (Unity, Trinity, Infinity) Host: @ Type: TXT Value: cloudhosting-domain-verification Once this TXT record has been added to your domain, you should be able to add the domain to your cPanel account.","articleSection":"Domains","author":{"@type":"Person","image":"https://files.helpdocs.io/8nzbvyta9f/other/1638919096842/36883420-819416091589957-8706689472600735744-n.jpg","name":"Jordan Jones"},"dateCreated":"2023-04-11T08:39:36Z","dateModified":"2024-04-03T18:36:31Z","datePublished":"2023-04-11T08:39:36Z","headline":"Verifying and Adding Remote domains to cPanel","mainEntityOfPage":"https://help.krystal.io/domains/verifying-and-adding-remote-domains-to-c-panel","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","logo":"https://files.helpdocs.io/8nzbvyta9f/logo.png?t=1669998786961","name":"krystal"},"url":"https://help.krystal.io/domains/verifying-and-adding-remote-domains-to-c-panel","version":9,"wordCount":207}</script> <link rel="canonical" href="https://help.krystal.io/domains/verifying-and-adding-remote-domains-to-c-panel"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.helpdocs.io/css/highlightjs-github-gist.min.css?v=1732636207"> <!-- [Begin] HelpDocs Required Additions --> <script src="https://cdn.helpdocs.io/js/jquery.min.js?v=1565690126"></script> <script src="https://cdn.helpdocs.io/js/tether.min.js?v=1565690126"></script> <script src="https://cdn.helpdocs.io/js/bootstrap.min.js?v=1565690126"></script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.helpdocs.io/css/bootstrap.min.css?v=1565690126"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.helpdocs.io/css/font-awesome.min.css?v=1565690126"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.helpdocs.io/css/tether.min.css?v=1565690126"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.helpdocs.io/css/glyphicons.css?v=1565690126"> <!-- [End] HelpDocs Required Additions --> <link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/magnific-popup.js/1.1.0/magnific-popup.min.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet"><script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/magnific-popup.js/1.1.0/jquery.magnific-popup.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script><script type="text/javascript"> (function() { $(function() { $('#article img').each(function() { $(this).wrap('<a></a>');

This means we do not allow remotely hosted domains to simply be added to cPanel, as this would allow you to add any domain name, regardless of where it's actually registered. This can open up many options for abuse, including intercepting mail or spoofing email addresses.</p><h3 id="how_do_i_add_a_remote_domain">How do I add a remote domain?</h3><p>When you add a Domain into cPanel, this will check for the following:</p><ul><li>If the Domain <strong>points to the server</strong> you're adding it to by checking the A record.</li><li>If the Domain is using the <a href="https://help.krystal.uk/domains/what-are-krystal-s-name-servers" target="_blank"><strong>Krystal Nameservers (Internal link opens in new tab)</strong></a></li></ul><p>In most cases, your domain will already point to Krystal and the verification steps above will authorise you to add the domain. Sometimes you may need to add a domain to your cPanel account without pointing it to us first. To do this, you can add the Following TXT record to the existing Domain's DNS provider:</p><p><u><strong>Shared Hosting</strong></u> <u>Customers</u><u><strong>:</strong></u></p><p>(Amethyst, Ruby, Emerald, Sapphire, Diamond, Tanzanite)</p><p>Host: <code>@</code></p><p>Type: <code>TXT</code></p><p>Value: <code>krystal-domain-verification</code></p><p></p><p><u><strong>Resellers:</strong></u></p><p>(Unity, Trinity, Infinity)</p><p>Host: <code>@</code></p><p>Type: <code>TXT</code></p><p>Value: <code>cloudhosting-domain-verification</code></p><p></p><p>Once this TXT record has been added to your domain, you should be able to add the domain to your cPanel account.</p><p></p><p></p><p></p> </div> <hr/> <div id="feedback" class="card-block" data-thanks="Got it!"> <h3>How did we do?</h3> <div class="btn-group" role='group' aria-label='Feedback'> <button class="feedback-positive btn btn-link" type='button'> <svg width="50" height="50" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <g fill="none" fill-rule="evenodd"> <circle fill="#FFDF86" cx="25" cy="25" r="25"/> <path d="M13.6 18.8a79.3 79.3 0 0 1-6.3-7.3 5.4 5.4 0 0 1 .6-7.6 4 4 0 0 1 4.4-.4c.9.5 1.4 1.2 1.8 2 .2.3.6.3.8 0 .4-.9 1-1.6 2-2a4 4 0 0 1 3.7 0c2.8 1.7 3.1 5.8 1 8a83.7 83.7 0 0 1-6.1 7.3c-.6.5-1.4.5-2 0zm21 .6c-2.5-2.7-4.5-5-6.3-7.6a5.8 5.8 0 0 1 .6-7.9c1.3-1 3-1.2 4.4-.3.9.4 1.4 1.1 1.8 2 .2.3.6.3.8 0 .4-1 1-1.7 2-2.1 1.2-.7 2.6-.7 3.7 0 2.8 1.7 3.1 6 1 8.4a86 86 0 0 1-6.1 7.5c-.6.6-1.4.6-2 0z" fill="#F71272"/> <path d="M10 28c0-1.6 5.9 4.7 15 4.7S40 26 40 28s-5.3 14.8-15 14.8S10 29.6 10 28z" fill="#866B21"/> </g> </svg> </button> <button class="feedback-neutral btn btn-link" type='button'> <svg width="50" height="50" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <g fill="none" fill-rule="evenodd"> <circle fill="#FFDF86" cx="25" cy="25" r="25"/> <path d="M16.6 20.7c2.5 0 4.6-3.5 4.6-6 0-2.6-2-5.7-4.6-5.7-2.5 0-4.6 3.1-4.6 5.7 0 2.5 2 6 4.6 6zm17 0c2.5 0 4.6-3.5 4.6-6 0-2.6-2-5.7-4.6-5.7-2.5 0-4.6 3.1-4.6 5.7 0 2.5 2 6 4.6 6z" fill="#866B21"/> <path d="M13.7 35.9h24" stroke="#866B21" stroke-width="4" stroke-linecap="round"/> </g> </svg> </button> <button class="feedback-negative btn btn-link" type='button'> <svg width="50" height="50" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <g fill="none" fill-rule="evenodd"> <circle fill="#FFDF86" cx="25" cy="25" r="25"/> <path d="M17.7 27.4c3-.8 6.1-4.3 5.3-7.3-.8-3-1.5 1.3-6.5 2.7-5 1.3-8-2-7.2 1 .8 3 5.4 4.4 8.4 3.6zM25 35c-3.1 0-7 2.5-7 5.6 0 3 1.8-.8 7-.8s7.2 3.9 7.2.8c0-3-4.1-5.6-7.2-5.6zm7.8-7.6c-3-.8-6.2-4.3-5.4-7.3.8-3 1.6 1.3 6.6 2.7 5 1.3 8-2 7.2 1-.8 3-5.5 4.4-8.4 3.6z" fill="#866B21"/> </g> </svg> </button> </div> </div> <hr/> <div id="related" class="card-block"> <h3>Related Articles</h3> <ul> <li> <a href="/web-hosting/managing-domain-redirection-in-cpanel">Managing domain redirection in cPanel</a> </li> <li> <a href="/whmcs/setting-up-domains-and-domain-pricing-in-whmcs">Setting up Domains and Domain Pricing in WHMCS</a> </li> <li> <a href="/cpanel/how-to-change-your-primary-c-panel-hosting-account-domain">How to change your primary cPanel hosting account domain</a> </li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <script> (function() { $(function() { $('#article pre').each(function(i, el) { $el = $(el);
