Subject: Re: [BackupPC-users] Changing Backuppc Web UI Password

Sorry, answered to quickly on the copy/paste from my notes.  The -c is a create 
flag, drop it to update.  Additionally, you may need to adjust the directory.

Thanks,

Greg Harris

It’s a web user password.  To my knowledge, you cannot change it via the web 
interface.

su htpasswd -c /etc/BackupPC/apache.users admin

Replace “admin” with whatever username you are looking for.

Thanks,

Greg Harris

Hi all, hopefully not a tricky one.

I cannot for the life of me figure out how to change the password for the 
backuppc web ui. Anyone with sock puppets and crayons able to help?

Thanks much all.
