    Get a reseller plan that you intend to use for yourself only (or a ded. server, pick your poison) and create accounts from the admin cp via the reseller.

    Yeah, but I mean I have a dedicated, I can manually create 50 accounts through the "Create Account" feature but is there a faster way?

    Thanks!

    Sure! Write a bash script. That would be easiest.

    I'm a bit lost here. In the post title, you want to create CPanel accounts but yet the "guy" (or maybe you mean server) isn't running CPanel.

    Is the server running CPanel or not? If not, what platform is being run is any? If not what OS is being run on this guy/box?

    I am running cPanel, he is not. I need to transfer his accounts to mine. He is running SSH I believe.

    Still lost. Walk us through with specifics as to what the setup his. You're now saying he has accounts and you;re trying to transfer them to your server. That's different from your first post. And SSH is not a platform, it;s a service.

    Where are the accounts now? Who's accounts are they? What specific software is being run on that box? (Don't think please. Find out. Havging to ask that twice is annoying as well.) Are they being moved to your server or his server? What hosting software is being run on the new server? Is it your box or his?

    I'm guessing the OP bought 50 sites from someone who was managing the sites using SSH/FTP to manually edit Apache virtualhost containers and whatnot. Basically the person the sites were purchased from was doing the job of CPanel themselves.
