Hi Ahmad,

Instructions to reset the user password on the DCO server is described here:

https://sxwhelpcenter.ecostruxureit.com/display/UADCO8x/Resetting+user+password+on+the+DCO+server

(the same user credentials would be used for webmin login as well).

PS. it is highly recommended to upgrade the product to latest version (currently DCO 8.2.12).

Kind regards

Dear Mr. Faridi

i tried your solution and unfortunately, it didn't work.

I logged in to the console successfully but it won't log-in to the Webmin.

how can this issue be solved?

thanks for your kind help

Ahmad, are you able to logon to webmin using the root user account?

The root password should have been defined with the DCO server was originally installed. If yes, from the webmin menu, click webmin users then the configure unix user authentication to verify whether the webmin user you expected to see here is still configured.

In my case the "apc" user is my webmin user, when apc logs in it is assigned the same access as root in webmin. If there's no entry here you can create one to map to the linux user you mentioned you can use.

If you do not know the password for the linux user (which you stated you can login to ssh so I doubt this is the case), then you can move to the users and groups view under system click on the Unix user and change its password in the following page.

Dear Mr. Greg Sterling

Thank you a lot for your help. i tried the root user on the webmin and it worked fine.

i didn't know that there was a root user, i checked /etc/passwd and found the root user, with little guessing i was able to log-in.

thanks a lot again
