− | From the FileZilla client menu, click the File menu, then click Export.
| |
− | Click "Export site manager entries" and then click "OK".
| |
− | Save the file to somewhere you can easily find it, e.g. your default documents folder with a descriptive name and perhaps the date e.g. "FileZillaSites_2018-06-10.txt".
| |
− | | |
− | Note: (This is also a handy way to back up your sites. If you name the file using '.xml' instead of '.txt', you will be able to re-import the file to other installations of the FileZilla client.)
| |
− | | |
− | Open the file with a text editor (e.g. Notepad, nano, etc.) and find the password(s) you're looking for.

− | == FileZilla Server - Administrator Password reset for server ==
| |
− | | |
− | To reset the administrator password for the FileZilla Server, edit the configuration file settings.xml.
| |
− | | |
− | If the FileZilla Server service program is running under the SYSTEM user (the default, unless chosen differently at installation time), the file is located here:
| |
− | | |
− | C:\ProgramData\filezilla-server\settings.xml
| |
− | | |
− | Within that file, locate the section that looks like this:
| |
− | <!--Administration options.-->
| |
− | <admin>
| |
− | <local_port>14148</local_port>
| |
− | <password index="1">
| |
− | <hash>...</hash>
| |
− | <salt>...</salt>
| |
− | <iterations>...</iterations>
| |
− | </password>
| |
− | <!-- Other stuff here... -->
| |
− | </admin>
| |
− | | |
− | Remove the entry <password>...</password> and substitute it with <password index="0" />, like below:
| |
− | | |
− | <!--Administration options.-->
| |
− | <admin>
| |
− | <local_port>14148</local_port>
| |
− | <password index="0" />
| |
− | <!-- Other stuff here... -->
| |
− | </admin>
| |
− | | |
− | Then restart the service. Next time you connect with the Administration Interface you won't need any password. As soon as you connect, set a new administration password using the proper configuration pane.
