How do I configure Directadmin credentials?

Edit the `.env` file with your DirectAdmin server URL (`DA_URL`), username (`DA_USERNAME`), and login key (`DA_LOGIN_KEY`). The server runs on port 8888 by default.

How do I start the Directadmin server?

Use `python main.py` for the FastAPI SSE server or `python server.py` for the simple MCP server. Both start on the configured port.

What credentials does it need?

It reads `DA_LOGIN_KEY` from the environment. Store these in your client's env block or a secrets manager — never commit them to a repository — and grant the narrowest scope that still covers your use case.
