Please initialize this system...

Welcome to your TurnKey @APP_NAME@ appliance!

Before your server is fully exposed to a hostile Internet, this system needs to be initialized. This will setup passwords, install security updates, etc.

To initialize the system, you need to log into the "root" account via SSH.

The turnkey-init initialization program should start automatically:

After initialization reload this page. Instead of this message, you'll be able to access your server as expected.

Can I log in without SSH?

No. Unfortunately not.

How do I log in via SSH?

The recommended SSH client is OpenSSH - although there are other options. On Windows, you may need to set up OpenSSH first. On Linux and MacOS it should already be available.

SSH with a password

If you set a root password pre-launch, open a terminal and type the command:

ssh root@example.com

Then enter your password.

SSH with a key pair

If you registered a key-pair pre-launch, you may need to provide the path to your private key as well. Do that with the -i switch - like this:

ssh -i path/to/private/key root@example.com

Complete initialization

Then complete the initialization steps as prompted.

Once your server has been initialized, reloading this page - or browsing to https://example.com - will take you to your server's main page.
