The default credentials to sign into the web interface are "root", "root". If you would like to change the credentials, you will need to edit a config file which is located at app/config/app.php.

When using KiOS, you will find the file at the /data/web directory.

 /*

 | When you first open the kerberos web application a user

 */

 'users' => [
  [
    "id" => 1,
    "username" => "root",
    "password" => "root",
    "firstname" => "Cédric",
    "secondname" => "Verstraeten"
  ]
 ],

This is outdated. That file doesn't contain the showed information.

But, doing that way, I was unable to login with the web interface, or even the passworded streaming interface.

So how to change root password and still have access with the standard user, is still a mystery to me.
