Generating and Modifying Passwords

As a Reseller, you would have to assist your Sub-Resellers, if they happen to forget their Username / Password for accessing their Control Panel. In such cases, there are 4 methods available for you. You can select any of the following methods to help your Sub-Resellers login to their Control Panel:

Forgot Password (Anchor: forgot)

Note

This method is useful when your Sub-Reseller has forgotten his Password.

To Direct your Sub-Reseller to Reset the Password himself

  1. The Sub-Reseller needs to visit the Control Panel Login URL at http://manage.glasta.com/reseller.

  2. Click the Forgot Password link.

  3. Provide his Username (Email Address) and click the Send Reset Instructions button.

    This would send an email to his email address, containing a link through which the Sub-Reseller can reset his Control Panel Password.

    Note
    • The link in the email will be valid for one hour from the time it was sent and it can be used to change the Password only once.

    • Only 5 attempts for sending the Password reset instructions are allowed in a 24 hour duration.

    • The email will also contain a link to cancel an unauthorized Password reset attempt.

Send Password (Anchor: send)

Note

This method is useful when your Sub-Reseller does not even remember his Username.
