Translations:How to host your own Fediverse instance?/17/en

You're now in the console of the server. This may look scary, but we'll guide you through it.
First you'll be asked for your login credentials. Enter root and hit enter.
Now you'll be asked for the password. Unfortunately you can't just copy-paste it, so you'll have to enter it manually. Nothing will appear when you enter the password, but once you hit enter you should be logged in.
Next you'll be asked to change the password. Unfortunately you'll have to enter the old password once more but then you can enter the new password - also twice. Choose a password that you don't use all the time but that you can remember. It's best to generate and store your password in a password safe like KeePass.
