Is i possible to make an existing Unix user the domain name

C

Guest
I already have a few users setup on the unix box one of which I would like also to be the user associated with a domain i have just created.

It would not allow me to use that user name at the time the domain was created - is it possible to change it now?

Thanks
 
Every user in Unix must have a unique name. You can not change the FTP user for a domain even after you created the domain, because the FTP user is a Unix user.
 
Thanks for - I had understood that bit of plesk ...

but what I would like to do is create a domain called "user1.com" with the domain username of "user1" where "user1" already exists in unix but does not have any domain associated within in plesk.

Is this possible ?
 
This is a windows forum. Are you speaking of Windows or Unix versions of Plesk?
