You can conveniently change your server password via the VMmanager 6 web panel.

After the service is activated, you receive an email with all the data from the server. For example:

We need to click on the link [https://spacecore.cloud /](https://spacecore.cloud/), enter the **User Name** and then the **Password** from the control panel (the password line is underlined in the screenshot).

After logging in, we get to the panel itself, where all our **Virtual servers** are visible on the main page.

Next, we need to click on the required service. Here we get to the server settings page. Next, click on the **Menu** section with three dots next to it, in the window that opens, select **Change password**.

After clicking, you will be prompted to enter a new password for the **VDS server**. To the right of the line is the **Generate** button, which will automatically create a strong password.

Click **Save**, after which the server restarts.

Now it is not possible to log in using the old password.

The new password is successfully matched.
