Its been several years since I've had to touch this. Recently I found my UPS and server powered down. Upon re-start I noticed that I could not connect via the WebGUI. I realized that I had upgraded my entire network to an EERO 7 setup and all the IP addresses has changed. In addition it now asks for a Tower Login and Password. Both has been long forgotten. Running 6.3.5 with over 20TB.

 

I read in one of the wikis...

Delete these files:

config/passwd - I did not delete due to conflicting instructions in another wiki

config/shadow - Deleted

config/smbpasswd - Could not find

 

After reboot it still asked for Login and Password

 

Please Help!!!

The latest instructions for this are here in the online documentation accessible via the Manual link at the bottom of the Unraid GUI.  In addition every forum page has a DOCS link at the top and a Documentation link at the bottom.   The Unraid OS->Manual section covers most aspects of the current Unraid release.

did everything in the write-up but im stuck at this point. In addition to the password situation, I also changed routers and the server has a static IP.

 

I 'm stuck , please see screen shot attached and advise...

Do you mean you have reserved the IP in your router, or do you mean you have set an IP in Unraid?

 

Attach diagnostics to your NEXT post in this thread.

Memory is coming back...Edit the NETWORK.CFG file?

Will changing DHCP to 'YES' fix things?

Hey!

 

Thanks for your help in steering me in the right direction

I renamed network.cfg and network-rules then rebooted. It defaulted to DHCP and got new credentials from the new router!

 

I then accessed the Web GUI and all my files were in-tact !

 

Thanks again.
