How to log in to cPanel to manage your hosting.

Updated 14 June 2026·The DynHost team

cPanel is the control panel for your hosting account. This article shows you how to log in.

From the client portal

  1. Log in at dynhost.co.uk/client.
  2. Find the service you want to manage under My Services.
  3. Click Login to cPanel.

You'll be automatically signed in — no password needed.

Directly

You can also log in to cPanel directly at https://yourdomain.co.uk:2083 (secure) or https://yourdomain.co.uk:2082 (non-secure — avoid).

The username is your cPanel username (usually the same as your domain without the TLD, but check your welcome email for the exact value). The password is the one you set when you first signed up.

If you've forgotten your cPanel password, you can reset it from inside the client portal: My Services → [your service] → Change Password.

First time in cPanel?

The dashboard is divided into sections. The ones you'll use most are:

  • Files → File Manager, Backups
  • Databases → phpMyAdmin
  • Domains → Domains, Redirects
  • Email → Email Accounts, Webmail
  • Software → Softaculous (one-click installs)

If you get stuck, our support team is one ticket away.
