  2. Log in as the administrator using the information sent to you in your setup email.
  3. If you have an existing customer setup, click Customers.  Otherwise, setup a new Customer.

  9. The last step is adding DNS for the domain via the customer portal.  This should match the DNS setup within Plesk and assumes you're not running bind on the server (in which case if you are, DNS is already setup and configured).
