Hi, i am not sure if this is the correct forum for this. if not, please move it 
I have created a small php commandline script to change passwords for DA users, or e-mail addresses, or FTP accounts. This script can reset passwords for either all (DA/custom e-mail,/custom ftp) accounts, or a single domain, or a single (DA/e-mail/ftp) user, and it can also mail the changed password to the affected DA user, as well as mail a summary of all changes to an e-mail address provided in the script. It can be run by an admin to reset passwords server wide, or by a reseller (with shell access) to reset passwords for users that are in his/her realm.
This is useful in cases where an exploit is found, and all passwords (of everything) serverwide need to be changed, or an employee who has all the passwords has left, or a client's computer is compromised, and he/she wants all passwords of everything related to his/her domains changed.
The script can connect to a DirectAdmin server remotely, which is useful if you have more than one server to manage.
It can be downloaded from:
https://github.com/sempiterna/DA-ChangePass
A more extensive overview on what it does can be read at:

Be sure to review and (where needed) update the parameters inside the script. Every parameter has a description to explain what it is for.
Script usage:
I have tested this script extensively, but nevertheless, it comes without any warranty.
