Server will not accept password

See original GitHub issue

No matter what I do, I cant get the server to accept my password.

I tried to use the default settings of admin / admin (SHA256).

I edited the wg-dashboard.ini file and changed both the username and password, stop and start the server, and it still wont accept.

Any ideas?

Thanks. It seems mkpasswd won’t hash without a salt, so I found this one liner to use instead:

echo -n mypassword | sha256sum | awk '{print $1}'

Had Ansible write the results of that into wg-dashboard.ini, works perfectly.

That’s great!! I’m thinking would you mind to share your script to configure WGDashboard on Ansible? I think people would love to have this resource 😉

It’s still a work in progress and also very much integrated with a whole server configuration project, so probably not that useful in itself, except as an example to crib from perhaps. wg-dashboard role here.
