New ExtremeManagement User Unauthorized

Darrin_Tingey — Tue, 23 Jul 2019 12:29:41 GMT

I have installed a new Extreme Management server on Ubuntu. I am not able to login for the first time but get a message immediately that user is not authorized. I am using the same user name and pw that was used to set up the system and login to the server. I tried setting up a new user but the results are the same.

Hello,

Check that the user has been correctly installed into the nsusers table.

SSH into the XMC server and the run following commands:

cd /usr/local/Extreme_Networks/NetSight/scripts/
./mysql.sh
use netsight;
select * from nsusers;

You should see all users that are currently authorized to login. If your username is not in this list then I would try to login with the username that is. There should at least be a "root" user.

Once in the application you can then create a new user in the XMC --> Administration --> Users tab.

If you can't login we'll need to manually inject a user into the table.

Thanks
-Ryan

That is the problem, root is the only user but in Ubuntu root doesn't get a password in the OS? is there a way to add to this table?
