I just installed OpenManage with giving any login credentials and now when I try to run it its asking me for the login. What is the default login for OpenManage??

[jalons]

Should be root / root password for a Linux box - not sure on the windows side of things.

[speedstep]

the Administrator account is the login for windows. You must have a password on the account or it wont let you in.

What do you put in as the hostname or ip adress on a default install

[reybeast]

you should be able to login with this: https://localhost:1311

[hagantic]

It gives malformed url as an error. Using just my hostname:1311 yeilds certificate error. Then, with just hostname:1311 and ignore certificate warnings checked the error message is internal error.

My default browser, Firefox, didn't like any of my password. However, taking the link "https://localhost:1311" and pasting into IE worked fine for me when using the local Server 2008 OS admin user name and password.

Hey Guys,

     I have 3 Servers that are Dell PowerEdge SC1435, PE2950 and a PE2850. I installed OMSA on all 3. It says if I have a password on the Admin Account it will let me login, However that is not the case I put in the host name, then username Administrator and the password and it erros out saying bad login credentials.

Could someone point me in the right direction on how I can resolve this.

Thanks,

In case this helps anyone else still struggling:

I found that there was an initial, nondescript prompt for username and password inside the web browser (Edge in my case).  The only hint was that it was Windows security, and requested by an HTTPS:// connection to my server.

I had to HIT CANCEL to that initial prompt, and THEN was presented with a much fancier Openmanage login screen.   For that screen, I was able to log-in using my Windows username and password (that happened to be the Administrator account).

Roadrunner21 nailed it for me... the windows password prompt needs to be CANCELLED and then you get the login page for Dell OpenManage... super weird.
