# How to Set a Password on Your Enshrouded Server (/docs/enshrouded/server-password)



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

In `enshrouded_server.json`:

```json
"password": "YourPassword"
```

Leave empty for public: `"password": ""`

> 📝 **Note:** The server password is separate from the user group passwords. Groups use their own unique passwords for role-based access — see [Roles & Admin](/docs/enshrouded/role-setup).
