  2. Click Web Hosting.

Click one of the following, based on the type of hosting you have. You can tell this by the second word in your hosting's description beneath your hosting account's domain name, e.g. Deluxe Web correlates to Web/Classic (Hosting Control Panel).

Web/Classic (Hosting Control Panel)

  1. Next to the hosting account you want to use, click Launch.

You cannot change the primary FTP account's username in cPanel.

If you want to change the password for your non-primary FTP users, log in to cPanel (more info), and then click FTP Accounts.
