Poweradmin is a web-based tool used for managing DNS servers. It can be installed on Windows 10.
Before we begin, ensure that you have the following:
Download the latest version of Poweradmin from http://www.poweradmin.org/.
Extract the downloaded file and copy the poweradmin
folder to the www
directory of your WAMP or XAMPP server.
Open your preferred web browser and type localhost/phpmyadmin
in the address bar.
Click on the New
button to create a new database.
Name the database poweradmin
and choose the desired collation.
Click on the Create
button.
Select the poweradmin
database from the left side menu.
Click on the Import
option in the tabs.
Choose the poweradmin.sql
file located inside the poweradmin\misc
directory and click on the Go
button.
Open the poweradmin\inc
directory and rename config-me.inc.php
to config.inc.php
.
Open config.inc.php
in a text editor such as Notepad++.
Locate the line that reads // $pa_db_pass = 'password';
and uncomment it by removing the //
in front of it.
Replace password
with the password you set for the root user of your MySQL server.
Save and close config.inc.php
.
Open your web browser and type localhost/poweradmin
in the address bar.
Use the default login credentials: Username: admin
and Password: password
.
You can change the password after logging in by clicking on Settings
> Change Password
.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Poweradmin on your Windows 10 machine.
