SSH Connection Issue on my OpenMediaVault Server

    Hello everyone,


    I have a problem connecting to my OpenMediaVault server via SSH. When I try to connect using the terminal, it asks for a password. I enter "openmediavault," which is the default password, but I receive a message saying that the password is incorrect.

    Do you have any ideas on what might be causing this issue? Could the default password have been changed without my knowledge?


    Thank you in advance for your help!

    You shouldn't be entering openmediavault when logging in via ssh. That is the default password for the admin user which is only used for the web interface. You should login as root or the user you install OMV with using the password you created.
