Unable to log in from another Mac

I gotta get this fixed. Ever since I upgraded to a M1 Mac Mini, I’ve been unable to log in with the client on anything other than the Mac the server is running on, I’m talking locally. The OK button is greyed out when I paste the password. When I type it in by hand, the OK button lights up but the password is rejected.

Now, I have two passwords in my keychain for Indigodomo; one for the forum and one for the web site. I’ve tried both passwords and neither one works. Does Indigo have a single sign-on and I have too many keys on my chain (not uncommon with Keychain)? I need to know this before I attempt to change the password and see if it gets fixed.

Re: Unable to log in from another Mac

Neither of the above. It's looking for the username and password specified in the Start Server dialog on the Indigo server machine.

No go. I’m using the password that matches the user name in the Start Server dialogue. How can I change the password if I can’t find the correct one? I’ve tried all four combinations of user names and passwords. I think I need to reset somehow.

You can log into the server system, stop the Indigo server, then change the username and password in the start dialog.

I can’t see the password in the start server dialogue, it’s blanked out and can’t tell if it’s one of the ones I have in the Keychain. Otherwise I’ll be locked out.

If you're looking at that on the server system, you can just change it to whatever you want. The server does not require you to enter a "correct" password to run.

Ah, gotcha. I wanted to make sure on that. Thanks Fly D.
Incidentally, your MiniUnfi plugin is in use here for occupancy sensing. Works great.
