Changing your DirectAdmin password

Log in to DirectAdmin.
Click your username at the top right and choose the option to change your password. You can also type "password" in the menu's search box.
Enter your current password, then your new password twice.
Save your changes.

Use a strong password of at least 12 characters that you don't use anywhere else. A password manager makes this easy.
