How to modify FTP password in OVH?

The OVHcloud Web Hosting plans offer access to an online file storage space. We can use this via the FTP protocol with an FTP user account and password.

Today we are going to take a look at how we can modify the FTP password in OVH.

1. First, we have to log in to the OVHcloud Control Panel. Then head to the Web Cloud section and select Hosting Plans.
2. After that, we have to choose the FTP-SSH tab.
3. Next, we choose one of the following options to modify the FTP password depending on whether our Web Hosting plan allows us to create an additional FTP user:
   • For plans that do not offer an additional FTP user:

     We can easily modify the password by clicking the Pencil icon in the Password column and entering the new password. Do not forget to click the confirm button.
   • For plans that offer multiple FTP users:

     In order to modify the FTP password of a specific FTP user, we have to click the three dots next to that user name and select Change Password. Remember to click Confirm after entering the new password.
4. After that, head to the Ongoing Jobs tab and refresh the page. We will notice the new change in a few minutes.

Our experts recommend adhering to the following guidelines while picking out a new password:

• Minimum 8 characters
• At least one lower-case letter
• At least one upper-case letter
• Maximum 30 characters
• At least one number
