The control panel is what is provisioned to the end client so they can control their webhost settings. Things such as new virtuals, email, dns and so on. In a mixed shared environment you want to be able to limit the permissions of what each client can do based on their hosting plan. Currently DotNetPanel does not support enabling or disabling coldfusion per virtual host making it impossible to control the hosting environment.
