When a Customer User Account is created, WSP will prompt you the option of also creating a Hosting Space.  The Hosting Space(Control Panel) is where all your domain's DNS records and website data are created and stored.  This article will cover creating and deleting a Hosting Space for an existing Customer User Account on VPSClass ASP and Dedicated servers using WebsitePanel.
