The control panel is where you can manage your web and email hosting. Using the DirectAdmin control panel you can create and manage your email accounts, email forwarders, out of office replies, databases, FTP access, password protected directories, sub domains, additional websites and so much more.
There are two ways to login. You can login to the control panel directly, or through this support portal.
To login directly
If you know the username and password for the control panel (which is not the same as your support portal login) then you can login directly:
To log in go to:
https://controlpanel.securewebhosting.co.nz:2222
Your user name and password will have been sent to you in a welcome email when you joined.
Note that your DirectAdmin control panel username and password is NOT the same as that used to log into this support portal.
