How to Set a Password on Your FiveM Server

Last updated: July 23, 2026

This guide shows you how to set a password on your FiveM server, which restricts access to only players who know the password.

Set the Password

Open Files — Log in to the NolimitHost Game Panel at https://panel.nolimithost.cc/ and select your FiveM server. In the sidebar, click Files.
Stop the server — From the Console page, stop the server first, so it doesn't overwrite your changes while you edit files.
Open server.cfg — Open the server.cfg file.
Add the Password Setting — Add the following line:
```
sv_password "yourpassword"
```
Replace yourpassword with your desired password.
Save and Restart — Save the file and start the server again from the Console page.

Players will now be prompted to enter the password when connecting through the FiveM client.

Note: To remove the password, either delete the sv_password line or set it to an empty string: sv_password ""
