Ok so I have a linux hybrid server running WHM/cPanel. I have the slight problem that when someone points their domain at our server, if there is no hosting package set up yet it defaults to the first hosting package it finds. Which is a site that begins with "a".

For example, a customer just bought a new domain name, we hadn't parked it on the hosting yet but they pointed it at our server. So it started loading a site that wasn't theirs that is the first hosting package alphabetically on the server that starts with "a".

I am not sure if this is specifically something Apache related, WHM related or what. Any pointers?

If it displays the first hosting package on your server, maybe you can create a hosting package for a fictitious domain aaaaaaaaaaaaa.com and create what you wand as a holding page in the web space.

But I am not sure if it has to be a resolvable domain that it displays or just something that is set up on the server. Let us know, we'll learn something too.
