- I have reinstalled a fresh CentOS 7.
- I can connect through SSH with the password I have chosen while installing the machine
- I go to Cloudmin and add the physical machine
- I go on Hosts systems and I register it as a KVM Host, letting it do the installation of the bridge, webmin and kvm software and all go smooth:
**Setting up KVM host system ..**
Installing Webmin …
… done
Checking system status …
… done
Installing required commands …
… done
Installing KVM packages …
… done
Enabling CGroups …
… done
Loading KVM kernel module …
… done
Creating loopback device files …
… done
Setting up br0 network bridge …
… done
… setup complete! You can now add this system as a KVM host.
- I reboot the machine
- I go to https://[IP]/:10000 where I see the webmin login screen
- I put root and my password in the login form
- I get Login failed. Please try again.
So I will use the solution you gave earlier to set the webmin password. If I had used a password to connect to the physical machine instead of the SSH key I could have connected through the login screen.
