Setting the MySQL root password

You should change your MySQL root password occasionally to maximize your site security. You should always change this password if you think someone else has access to your WebHost Manager account.

Warning: Do not make the MySQL and server root passwords the same.

To set the MySQL root password:

1. Click on the Set MySQL Root Password link in the Server Setup menu.

2. Enter the new MySQL password in the New Password field, and click on the Change Password button.
