The standard password of all users (root, admin, MySQL root user, etc.) in HowtoForge's VMware images is howtoforge.

NOT for this machine. server1  Login incorrect

By: till

The information is correct, the password is howtoforge. But maybe you used a wrong user, on Ubuntu systems, you can not login as root as root is disabled by Ubuntu, on these vm's you login with the username "admnistrator" and password "howtforge", as explained at the end of the tutorials. I can't give you a more specifc answer as you did not say which VM you downloaded as all servers have the hostname "server1", so thats not specific to one VM or setup.

Sorry. But password howtoforge does not work for Ubuntu_16_04_apache_php-fpm?

I've tried vmware and virtual box.

What can be the reason?

By: Daniil

Login admnistrator worked
