Web IF user/password

[stevieb22]

Running Black Hole V10, I need to know how to set the web if username/password, I have enabled password protection in the plugin but do not know how to modify default password.

Does anyone know the location of the correct file so I can FTP a new password?

Cheers

Hi Steve
I don't think you can modify the passwd of webif without modify the passwd of dreambox
When you enable the passwd protection , it use the passwd of your dreambox

/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/WebInterface/plugin.py ( open plugin.py with editor ) you will this this

class PasswordDatabase:
"""
this checks webiflogins agains /etc/passwd
"""
passwordfile = "/etc/passwd"

now you knows where is stored the passwd :) but it's encrypted

for change passwd of you're dreambox ( same of webif )
connect with telnet
and use command

passwd
now tape 2x you're new passwd

Strange, when I connect with Dreambox control centre I use the default user/password (root, dreambox) yet Webif failed to connect.

Now I have changed the password it connects to Webif OK! Maybe it's a security protocol in Webif
