I have just got a server at below£10host and it all seemed good. Anyway, after installing my board, i discovered that my control panel just shows the Domain Control panel for my domain. The usual Cp links appear on the left of the screen, but on the right its all domain control.
I click General Settings, it brings up the domian control screen again! eek!
However, if i click announcements or something that does not go through the cpanel.cgi, it does NOT bring up the domain screen, it brings up the screen it should.
Anything that uses any of the cpanel.cgi's just brings up domain control.
Any one know the answer?
I email below$10host and they have got one of their programmers looking at it, i am doubtful though.

Post the exact URL to your cp.html.

If you have properly edited cplinks.html, there may be a name conflict with some of your host's files. Be sure you have the correct URL to your cgi directory as the BASE HREF in cplinks.html. Check that you edited the proper line, not the example, but the <BASE HREF=""> looking line.

Could you post a direct url to your control panel so we can take a look?
