New syntax is:
plesk_password_changer.php <old admin password> [new admin password] [options]
Where [options] can be:
–all – [default] reset passwords for all supported entities
–admin – reset password for admin
–resellers – reset passwords for resellers
–clients – reset passwords for clients
–domains – reset passwords for main FTP account of domains
–domainadmins – reset passwords for Domain Administrators
–users – change passwords for hosting panel users
–additionalftpaccounts – reset passwords for additional FTP accounts for domains
–subdomains – reset passwords for subdomains. NOTE: For Plesk 10.x subdomains treated as domains.
–webusers – reset passwords for Web Users
–mailaccounts – reset passwords for mail accounts
For example, next command
"%plesk_dir%additionalPleskPHP5php.exe" -d safe_mode=0 plesk_password_changer.php setup s3$ret! --admin --clients
means that passwords for admin and clients will be reset, password for admin will be "s3$ret!" (without quotes)
