Enabling Power User UI

The power user interface combines the simplicity of Parallels Small Business Panel and powerful hosting management features of Parallels Plesk Panel product line. It is intended for users who do not need functions for reselling shared hosting services and accommodating new resellers and customers:

* There is no hierarchy of user accounts specific to shared hosting: no resellers, no customers.
* There are no service plans, subscriptions, and limits on amounts of resources consumed by websites.

To enable the power user mode through the Panel command line:

* [ip-address] is the IP address allocated to the administrator’s default webspace.
