Your WebOké passwords in your manager
A WebOké package comes with more passwords than you might think. They are all separate. Put them all in your manager, each with its own strong password. Then you'll never have to search again.
Which items do you create?
| Item | Username | Address (URL) in the item | Read more |
|---|---|---|---|
| My WebOké | your My WebOké email address | the address of My WebOké, as you see it in your browser | Setting, changing or forgetting your password |
| DirectAdmin (logging in directly) | your DA username | the address you use to log in, for example yourdomain.com/config | Setting or changing your DA password |
| Each mailbox | the full email address | the address of your webmail | Changing the password of an email address |
| Nextcloud | your Nextcloud username | the address of your Nextcloud | Changing or forgetting your password |
| Nextcloud app passwords | your Nextcloud username | none; note which device it's for in the notes | App passwords: when and how |
| Managing your website, for example WordPress | your username on the website | yourdomain.com/wp-admin |
Tips per service
- My WebOké: after your password, My WebOké asks for a login code by email or a code from your authenticator app (The login code by email (two-step verification), Using an authenticator app). Your manager fills in the password, and the code comes after that.
- DirectAdmin: you can have My WebOké create your DA password with the button that generates a password. Copy it to your manager straight away.
- Mailboxes: give each mailbox its own password. Your email program remembers it, but you'll need it when you set up a new phone. So put it in your manager as well.
- Nextcloud apps: you only see an app password once. Copy it to your manager straight away or paste it directly into the app.
Shared packages
Do you manage the package with other people? Then preferably give everyone their own login (see Inviting users and granting permissions). If a password really has to be shared, such as for a general mailbox, put it in a shared collection (see Sharing passwords with your team or family).
Please note: WebOké will never ask for your password or your login code, not by email, not by phone and not via WhatsApp. Does your manager not fill in your password on a page that looks like My WebOké? Then take a close look at the address. Read more in Secure passwords and what to do if a password has leaked.
