It is off by default on FREAKHOSTING RedM servers. To turn it on, set **Enable txadmin** to `1` in **Startup** and start the server. The console shows a 4-digit PIN; click **Open txAdmin** (port `40120`), enter the PIN, link your Cfx.re account and choose a deployment type, such as the VORP recipe. | Difficulty | Time | Address | Startup variable | | - | - | - | - | | Beginner | About 10 minutes | Your server IP, port `40120` | **Enable txadmin** (`0` off, `1` on) | ## Before you start * Your licence key. See [how to get a RedM licence key](https://help.freakhosting.com/games/redm/how-to-get-a-redm-license-key.md). txAdmin asks for it during setup. * A Cfx.re account. It becomes the main (master) txAdmin admin. ## How to turn on txAdmin **1. Set Enable txadmin to 1** Open your server in the [Game Panel](https://games.freakhosting.com) and click **Startup**. Change **Enable txadmin** from `0` to `1`, then click outside the field. It saves on its own. **2. Start the server and copy the PIN** Click **Console**, then **Start**. txAdmin starts and prints a box with "All ready! Please access" and a 4-digit PIN. The console then says "Please open txAdmin on the browser to configure your server." The game server waits until you finish the setup. **3. Click Open txAdmin** Click **Open txAdmin** next to your server's IP at the top of the page. txAdmin opens on port `40120`. **4. Enter the PIN and link your account** Enter the PIN, click **Link account** and sign in with your Cfx.re account. Set a backup password and register. **5. Choose a deployment type** Pick an option from the table below and follow txAdmin's steps. Paste your licence key when txAdmin asks for it. **6. Save and run** Check the `server.cfg` that txAdmin shows you and click **Save & Run Server**. > [!NOTE] > > The console note "open port 40120 on your OS Firewall as well as in the hosting provider" is a general txAdmin message. Port `40120` is already assigned to your FREAKHOSTING server; you don't need to open anything. ## Which txAdmin deployment type should I pick? | Deployment type | Choose it when | | - | - | | **Popular Recipes** | You want a ready-made RedM server. txAdmin added CFX Default and VORP recipes for RedM in version 6. | | **Existing Server Data** | You want to run the files in your server's main folder and keep using the panel's **Server config** and **Resources** pages. | | **Remote URL Template** | You have a link to a recipe file, such as the [official VORP recipe](https://github.com/VORPCORE/VORP_txAdmin). See [how to install VORP Core](https://help.freakhosting.com/games/redm/installing-vorp-core-and-resources.md). | | **Custom Template** | You have your own recipe. For advanced users. | > [!WARNING] > > A recipe is deployed into its own folder under `txData`, with its own `server.cfg` and `resources`. The panel's **Server config** and **Resources** pages edit the main folder, which that server doesn't use. Edit a recipe server's files in txAdmin or with **Files** in its folder. ## Where does txAdmin keep its data? In `txData/default` in your server's main folder. It holds txAdmin's settings, admins and the folders of deployed recipes. Include it in your [backups](https://help.freakhosting.com/portals/game-panel/how-to-create-and-restore-backups.md). ## How do I turn txAdmin off? Set **Enable txadmin** back to `0` in **Startup** and restart. The server then starts from the main folder's `server.cfg` again. The **Open txAdmin** button stays visible, but nothing answers on port `40120` while txAdmin is off. ## Frequently asked questions ### Does txAdmin work with RedM? Yes. txAdmin's version 6 release notes say it added full RedM compatibility, a RedM-themed in-game menu, and CFX Default and VORP recipes. Your server runs txAdmin 8. ### I lost the txAdmin PIN. What now? The PIN is shown in the **Console** while txAdmin has no admin account. Restart the server and read the console again. After registering, you sign in with your Cfx.re account or backup password. ### Why does Open txAdmin show nothing? txAdmin is off. Set **Enable txadmin** to `1` in **Startup** and start the server. ### Can other people help me manage txAdmin? Yes. Add them in txAdmin's admin manager. If they also need the console or files, add them as a [Game Panel sub-user](https://help.freakhosting.com/portals/game-panel/how-to-manage-sub-users.md). ## Related guides > [card] [RedM server guide](https://help.freakhosting.com/games/redm/redm-server-hosting-guide.md) > > Every RedM guide in one place. > [card] [Install VORP Core](https://help.freakhosting.com/games/redm/installing-vorp-core-and-resources.md) > > The VORP txAdmin recipe. > [card] [Admin menu](https://help.freakhosting.com/games/redm/admin-menu-setup.md) > > txAdmin's in-game menu. > [card] [Licence key](https://help.freakhosting.com/games/redm/how-to-get-a-redm-license-key.md) > > txAdmin asks for it. > [card] [Startup variables](https://help.freakhosting.com/portals/game-panel/how-to-configure-startup-variables.md) > > Change Enable txadmin. *** > [!NOTE] > > **Tested by the FREAKHOSTING team** on our Game Panel on 2 November 2026 (RedM, FXServer build 38055 with txAdmin 8.1.2).
