Hi Ashlin,

Yes, You can create a temporary root WHM session by executing "whmapi1” command via Linux Shell.

Hi Chris,

You can create a temporary root WHM session by executing the following command:

whmapi1 create_user_session user=root service=whostmgrd

Just copy the WHM URL and paste it on browser. This link will bypass the need to enter a root password
