    I registered a domain name this month and it has been live now with the help of my friend. My friend send the request to his friend and now there seems some problem. My friend’s friend used his contact name and address details to register the domain name.

    Now the domain name is not in my name’s but my friend’s name. And the whois record proves it. Also in whois records, the Lock status is given as
    Lock Status: clientTransferProhibited

    What this lock status mean? And I have also heard about EPP, whats that, I have not received anything. My friend mailed me only the user id and password.

    Now I want the domain name and contact address in my name. what should I do?

    Please help.

    Since you have the username and password you just have to login to the registrar's control panel and change the contact information ... then change the password. The WHOIS should tell you who the registrar is.

    indianeyes..... you cant manage the domain from your cpanel account.... Cpanel is for managing your hosting.

    let me know your registrar and I'll help you
    as guys said, cPanel is used to manage your hosting account and you can't change domain who is information from cpanel
