Overview:

This interface allows you to change the passwords for your reseller and cPanel accounts. Administrators can set a new password without the original password. This becomes useful when users lose, forget, or compromise their password.

Change password

To change an account’s password, perform the following steps:

1. Select the account for which to change the password.
2. Enter and confirm the new password in the appropriate text boxes.
   Important:

   Use a secure password. A secure password is not a dictionary word, and it contains uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols.
3. Select Synchronize MySQL password to use the same password for both MySQL® and the cPanel account.
   Note:

   This option only appears if the the .my.cnf file exists in the /home/USERNAME directory where USERNAME represents the account’s username.
4. Select Enable Digest Authentication to enable digest authentication support. This option allows you to access Web Disk through a clear text connection or an unencrypted connection. Users who run Microsoft® Windows Vista®, Windows® 7, or Windows® 8, and who do not possess an SSL certificate signed by a recognized certificate authority require this support.
5. Click Change Password.
