Root password required for OMV

[jtmpush18]

Hello. I am a real newbie at Linux and so I really need your help.

I set up a new odroid N2+ with Open Media Vault, and it doesn't show anything. 

I'm assuming that the id/password I used wasn't the admin id/password.

So, I used Putty to get into my new machine, and I used the following to change the password of "root":

root@odroidn2:~# passwd root
New password:
Retype new password:
passwd: password updated successfully
root@odroidn2:~# exit
 

However, I couldn't sign in to OMV with that id:root and the password that I just changed it to.

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

(Please excuse the basic ignorance of this question, I'm just learning my way around.)

Maybe OMV needs an additional non-privileged user to work?

Hi @jtmpush18,

 

you can set a new password for omv with:

 

sudo omv-firstaid

 

some reading will help you...

OMV has a default login and password.
Login : admin
