# cPanel / WHM With Wasabi

[cPanel / WHM](https://www.cpanel.com/) is certified for use with Wasabi. cPanel/WHM can connect to Wasabi via the S3 interface. To do so, change your AWS S3 destination to point to Wasabi servers using the procedure below.

1. SSH into your server.
2. Use any text editor to edit the S3.pm file. This file is usually located in a path similar to this on your server.

/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/perl/526/lib64/perl5/cpanel_lib/Amazon/S3.pm

> The number 526 in the path changes for different servers.
3. Change [amazonaws.com](http://amazonaws.com/) to [wasabisys.com](http://wasabisys.com/) on the lines below.

$self->host('[s3.amazonaws.com](http://s3.amazonaws.com/)') if not defined $self->host; $self->host( 's3-' . $error_hash->{'Region'} . '.[amazonaws.com](http://amazonaws.com/)' ) unless $called_from_redirect; the S3-compatible

You can now connect to Wasabi using the S3-compatible option in the Destination Type.
