How to set a Vintage Story server password

Vintage Story Invalid Password Dialog

Vintage Story servers are private by default. Set a password to make your server semi-public. This guide will show you how to do that in a few simple steps.

Setting a password

  1. Start your server
  2. Open the Console screen in the app
  3. Enter the command /serverconfig password YourSecurePassword
    • Replace YourSecurePassword with your desired password
    • Capitalization of the password does matter

Removing the server password

  1. Start your server
  2. Open the Console screen in the app
  3. Enter the command /serverconfig nopassword

Problem: Invalid password

If you try to join your server without the correct password, you'll see the following message:

You were disconnected from this server
Password is invalid

In that case, make sure to double-check the spelling of the password and try again.
