If the panel was installed from the VM Manager panel using a recipe, or you chose it when ordering, then the password for the admin user will be the same as for root. After authorization, you will be able to observe such an interface. ![How to create a user and add a domain to the HestiaCP panel? - 1](https://dx86q6oq7ry0e.cloudfront.net/uploads/media/blog/a48@server-panel.net/2022/08/01/1660996559_01.png) In order to add a domain or database, you must create another user, as this is required by the panel's security policy. **Important! Although you can add domains by logging in with the admin user, it is recommended that you also create a user account for yourself. This is because when you are logged in as admin you have elevated privileges so you can harm other user's websites if you are not careful.** HestiaCP will also warn you about this if you try to add a new domain as an **admin** user. ![How to create a user and add a domain to the HestiaCP panel? - 2](https://dx86q6oq7ry0e.cloudfront.net/uploads/media/blog/a48@server-panel.net/2022/08/01/1660997143_02.png) If you are logged into the panel as admin, then you can see this menu in the top panel: **USERS WEB DNS MAIL DB CRON BSCKUPS** In the **USERS** section, click the **ADD USER** button and enter user details: ![How to create a user and add a domain to the HestiaCP panel? - 3](https://dx86q6oq7ry0e.cloudfront.net/uploads/media/blog/a48@server-panel.net/2022/08/01/1660997480_2.png) 1\.
