  5. Completion

    When the installation is finished, Plesk Web Hosting 6.0 will have started automatically. In order to complete the Plesk Web Hosting initial configuration, you need to login to Plesk Web Hosting on your host at https://machine.domain.name:8443/ or https://IP-Address:8443/

    IMPORTANT
