How to Configure Your FiveM Server

FiveM server settings live in server.cfg in your server's root directory. You can edit this file directly from the panel's file manager.

Open server.cfg

  1. Log in to the panel and open your FiveM server.
  2. Click Files in the left sidebar.
  3. Find and open server.cfg.

Key settings

  • sv_hostname "My Server": The name shown in server lists.
  • sv_maxclients 32: Maximum number of players (up to your plan limit).
  • sv_licenseKey "your_key": Your Cfx.re licence key (required for public listing).
  • sv_endpointPrivacy true: Hides your real IP from server lists.
  • sets tags "drifting, cars, freeroam": Searchable tags on the server list.

Setting a server password

Add this line to lock your server to invited players only:

sv_password "YourPassword"

Getting a Cfx.re licence key

To appear in the public server list you need a free licence key from keymaster.fivem.net. Link your Cfx.re account, register your server IP, and copy the key into sv_licenseKey.

Applying changes

Save the file and restart the server from the panel Console tab for changes to take effect.
