Setting a server password on your ARK Server requires users to enter the password before they can join the server. By default, all users can join without a password.
You can set a server password with the following steps:
- Access your control panel and Stop your server.
- Navigate to Config.
- Open GameUserSettings.ini.
- Set
ServerPassword
to the desired password, and save the file.
- Start the server.
Once your server restarts, all users will be required to enter the password you set before they can join the server.
