Safe to change web login user / password?

Hi,

The user / password login for vizy.local is just for the web server, right? I can go ahead and change those without breaking anything, right?

Thanks,
Ed

Hi Ed,
Vizy’s passwords aren’t tied any of the Linux passwords. You can create, delete and change Vizy user accounts and it won’t cause anything adverse with the rest of the Linux software.

If you forget your Vizy password, you can log in via ssh or hook up a monitor/mouse/keyboard and bring up a shell and delete /home/pi/vizy/etc/users.json. The passwords will be reset to admin for admin and guest for guest.
