How to change your VPS root password
Root access is no longer provided. Krystal administers Managed VPS servers for you and cPanel is required - see What is included in Managed VPS. The Change Password action in your Client Area applies to cPanel accounts, not to a server root password.
Changing your VPS root password
The root password for your VPS is the same as your WHM and first cPanel account. It is changed from within WHM.
Changing your VPS root password via WHM
- Within WHM select Change Root Password from the Server Configuration menu options.
- Enter you new root password twice - once in the New root Password field and again in the Confirm Password field.
Clicking the eye icon will show/hide the password you're typing and the Generate button will generate a random password you could use.
- Click the Change Password button to complete the process.
