Cannot login to CLI, full GUI access

[BradCline]

I'm unable to login to the CLI of expedition. I believe the password is correct but neither the default password or the one we changed it to are working. I have full GUI access, is there anyway to recover CLI access from the GUI?

I'm on version 1.2.52, and I've found a few different articles about recovering CLI access however all of it appears to require CLI access to do.

Hi @BradCline 

From Expedition GUI you can not alter the CLI users/passwords as those are system passwords assigned by you or your system administrator. The scripts we provide on Expedition are quite the opposite as they are intended to recover the default admin password for the GUI.

Note: the default GUI user is admin but the default CLI user is expedition. Just in case you are trying to use the same user on the GUI and the CLI.

If you forgot the credentials for expedition or root CLI users, you could reset them on your Ubuntu VM. For that you can request it to your system administrator or googling you will find some useful articles.

My recommendation first will be to save a VM snapshot so you can go back at any time.

Hope this helps,
