Mike,

I have a fresh build of ASL3 and am having a simliar error every ~10 seconds…

NOTICE[648589]: manager.c:3790 authenticate: 127.0.0.1 failed to authenticate as ‘admin’

Could this be caused by the [123456] stanza in allmon.ini file?

Sounds like it might be communicating if not for criteria mismatch…

Your password must match. And I do believe there may be issues with some special characters, so you might want to test it with something simple like 123456 if you are using them.

[general]
displaysystemname = yes
enabled = yes
webenabled = yes
port = 5038

If you are accessing from outside your NAT, you will need to forward the management port used to the correct internal IP.

But if this issue is with allmon3, please start a new thread and better describe the issue if you have not found an answer. I am not very familiar with allmon3 anyway.
You will want to catch the attention of those who are by using that in the title.
This is a old thread.

Ok I found the source of the problem… Since Allmon3 is bundled in with ASL v3, it has a ini file located here: /etc/allmon3/allmon3.ini

When you change your admin password during installation, you MUST also go into this file and update the secret password. Since I use Supermon vs Allmon3, I never thought to change this file. I also don’t recall changing this password being in the installation instructions on the Allstarlink website.

For those stumbling on this later…

Allmon3 is a separate piece of software.
The fact it may have been in a image install, does not bypass any install/setup instructions.
It does have it’s own password scheme not related to ASL.
