# How to Set a Password on Your Conan Exiles Server (/docs/conan-exiles/server-password)



import { Step, Steps } from 'fumadocs-ui/components/steps';

In `Engine.ini`:

```ini
[OnlineSubsystemSteam]
ServerPassword=YourPassword
```

Leave blank for a public server. Restart after changing.

> 📝 **Note:** `ServerPassword` controls who can join. The `AdminPassword` in ServerSettings.ini is separate — it controls admin access.
