Root Password
#5
RE: Root Password
There are a few things the above members failed to mention:

The server root user has nothing to do with the database root user that Sentora uses.
The server root user password is NOT in the passwords.txt file so that is no help for SSH logins.

And no. There are no FTP modules/programs that Sentora uses that will allow you to view the password.txt file since FTP accounts are locked down to each user's individual hosting folders.

This search maybe more helpful to your needs: Google: recover root password centos 7

It's reasons like these I prefer to keep the server root user active but use private keys instead of passwords for SSH logins. Google: using ssh keys instead of passwords

My preferred program for accessing my server is WinSCP. It has many useful features all in one program like SSH access, FTP access, GUI file manager and command line (uses putty) as well as a few other very useful features like creating key pairs for password-less SSH logins (key logins).
