Resetting the Password via SSH:
- Access the server as root: Use an SSH program like PuTTY to connect to your server as the root user.
- Reset the password: Execute the command
passwd <username>
(replace<username>
with your DirectAdmin username, oftenadmin
or your server username). - Follow the prompts: You'll be prompted to enter a new password twice.
- Verify the change: Once successful, you'll see a message confirming the password change.
- Restart DirectAdmin (optional): You may need to restart the DirectAdmin service using the command
service directadmin restart
.
