Signing in to DirectAdmin

DirectAdmin hosting 25/10/2026

Your hosting is managed in the DirectAdmin panel. The easiest way in is from the client area:

  1. Open Services and choose your hosting.
  2. Press Login to Control Panel. DirectAdmin opens straight away, no password needed.

You can also sign in directly. The server address (e.g. zeus.boost.pl) and your username are on the service page under Server information. Open the server address with port 2222 in your browser, e.g. https://zeus.boost.pl:2222, and sign in with your hosting username and password.
