Hi Guys.

I have installed VestaCP but forgot my admin password. When I use the password reset function, the new password is send to an email address that does not exist anymore.

How do I get in VestaCP admin?

Kind regards.

If you have root ssh access, you can change password via command:

Code: Select all

v-change-user-password admin adminpassword
