About

You need to access WHM but the client did not tell you the root password, how do you get in? The WHM API is the answer! It is only necessary to have SSH access to the server.

The WHM API has many options, one of which is to create a temporary token to access.

Only for cPanel/WHM servers

How to use

Just run the script and access url

bash <(curl -ks https://raw.githubusercontent.com/renanpessoa/WHM-without-root-password/master/whmpass.sh)

Example:

root@vps [~]# bash <(curl -ks https://raw.githubusercontent.com/renanpessoa/WHM-without-root-password/master/whmpass.sh)

To access as a reseller run the command adding the -r parameter and the reseller account username:
