Once you have selected a passphrase, please save it to a secure password manager, such as KeePass, and make a backup copy. If your server is rebooted, it will be necessary to log in and re-enter your passphrase to unlock your files. If you lose your passphrase, you will lose access to your data. We cannot reset or recover it for you. Please take a moment to create a suitable passphrase before proceeding.
