    CPanel login problem

    I just wanted to know whether CPanel/WHM sets a default username and password when it's first installed. I had it installed on my Kingcomp box yesterday but the tech that installed it never sent me any login information, so I'm locked out of my own server and 17 sites are offline because of it.

    I do have root access to shell, but I couldn't find anything in the CPanel documentation about setting the login information via shell.

    Try using the same username and password that you use for shell root.

    https://server.ip:2087/
    username: root
    password: <your root password>

    or
    login to the server via ssh
    su -
    passwd
    change root password

    try again

    https://server.ip:2087/
    username: root
    password: <your root password>
