Nagios XI User Account Settings

[edenbridge]

Hi Nagios !

I have just downloaded the latest Nagios VM solution 2012R1.6 64bit - I'm running this on VMware workstation 9

I have installed the VM, sorted the networking, can ping the node, however when I open the browser to http://192.168.194.99/nagiosxi - i get to the general home page,
I then click on 'Access Nagios' - I'm then route to the main log in screen - not the configuration screen. I dont have a username / password so cant log in ?

How can i reset / change / configure a new user / or the nagiosadmin account - to enable me to log in ?

Many thanks for your help !!

Regards

If you forgot the password that you initially set up, and now you cannot log in the web interface, you can reset the password by typing in terminal:

Code: Select all

cd /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts
./reset_nagiosadmin_password.php --password=<newpassword>

where you substitute the "<newpassword>" with the actual password, for example:

Code: Select all

./reset_nagiosadmin_password.php --password=welcome

Hope this helps.
