FTP passwords

Hi Guys,

I know its possible within windows to get the Plesk Admin password. But is it possible to obtain FTP Passwords?

I can do this within linux not an issue, but windows being windows...

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers
 
Hello,

The FTP passwords can be found in Parallels Plesk Panel (PP) database with the help of the following queries:

1) Find the FTP login account id:

mysql> select login,account_id from sys_users where login like '%testftp%';
+---------+------------+
| login | account_id |
+---------+------------+
| testftp | 13 |
+---------+------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

2) Find the password for the account:

mysql> select id,password from accounts where id=13;
+----+----------+
| id | password |
+----+----------+
| 13 | 123qwe |
+----+----------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

Thank you
 
Hi Nataliya,

Thank-you for that, however what is the username/password within Windows VPS to access the MySQL locally?
I have tried admin and the Plesk Password, as it is that for the Linux versions.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
Bart
 
You can access Plesk 's MySQL in this way:
> cd %plesk_dir%\mysql\bin
> mysql -uadmin -p'plesk_admin_password' -P8306
 
Hi Satoriya,

It seems that within Plesk 8.x the usernames and passwords are kept in an Access Database, not MySQL.

I have attached a simple VB program i made to get Plesk Username/passwords and FTP username/passwords from the database.

Seems to work well.

It will require .Net 3.5 to be installed on the VPS, as it was created with VB 2008.

Thanks
Bart
