Reset DirectAdmin “admin” Password

[Vinil]

DirectAdmin determines the admin password during installation and saves these passwords into the file called setup.txt.

You can find the admin password from the file /usr/local/directadmin/scripts/setup.txt

------
adminname=admin
adminpass=xxxxxxx
------

where adminpass=xxxxxxx is the admin password generated during DA installation.

To change admin password, login the server as root and execute:

passwd admin

Enter your new password here.


That's it
