SECURE CONSOLE SERVERS Initial Sysadmin Access

5.2.2 Log In as root

At the command prompt, type root to access the SCS as the root user. The default password is root.

Note

The root user should change the default root password (use the passwd command) as soon as possible to prevent undesired SCS system access.

You will see the short Hostname (e.g., “scs”) in the root login (#) prompt.

5.2.3 Enter Commands

The system administrator enters Linux commands using the command-line inter- face. Unless otherwise shown, commands are all lower-case and may have modifiers. SCS commands are discussed in Section 6, Commands, beginning on page 47.

5.2.4 Log Out

To log out from a session, use the command logout. If logging out from a net- work session, the Console Server will disconnect the ssh session.
