How can I change the default password of geoserver admin from geoserver
to something else?
I have tried two different things, but none worked. First thing I tried following the online documentation is to go to the data_dir at:
/usr/local/lib/geoserver-2.5/data_dir/security
and I could only find
<user enabled="true" name="admin" password="digest1:XXXX...">
in usergroup/default/users.xml
. But I can't edit a digest.
The second thing I tried is to change the password from the web admin interface in the "Passwords" menu on the left panel. Although I can change the password, but it seems to be changing something called the master password. The password for admin
remains the same.
I am using geoserver2.5 from osgeolive8.
