    You can set the admin password with e.g. phpmyadmin. Login to the ISPConfig database and change the passwort column in the table sys_user where username = admin to the new password and select "md5" as encryption function.

    Use the commandline mysql client to change the password.

    mysql command?

    I get as far as
    >USE ispconfigdb;
    Then I
    >SHOW TABLES;
    I can see the sys_user but I'm not sure of the command. Can you help.

    Thanks in advance. Cheers!

    You can update the admin password with this SQL query:

    This resets the password for the user admin to "admin"
