I added firefox and Xfce and their dependencies along with httpd and tried to log into localhost:9090. I believe that is the right port. I am prompted to enter fedora server edition password. I have read there is no default password, but it wants a user name. What am I supposed to enter as a user? To access Fedora Server Edition from Xfc and firefox?As part of the installation you are required to provide at least one user, either using root and create a password or - the recommended way - create a non-privileged system user who is by default entitled to acquire root priviledges to perform administrative tasks. Without selecting one or these choices the installation program will not proceed (see https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-server/installation/interactive-local/#_creating_users). Use this user to login with Cockpit. By default root doesn’t work here for security reasons. You would have to modify the default configuration. I would highly recommend never doing that - and off the top of my head, I don't even know how to do that. To access the web admin GUI you use https://YOUR_SERVER_DNS_NAME:9090 <https://your_server_dns_name:9090/> or https://YOUR.SERVER.IP:9090 on your _desktop_ to connect to your server. By the way, I am planning an article "Getting Started with Fedora Server Edition" or "Get to Know Fedora Server Edition" as an introduction for new users who are getting started with a server for the first time. Do you have any idea what you would like to see in such an article? Best Peter Well I couldn't login with root and that's all I have set. I am not using two machines here so that might be it. But I have however, logged into a web server through a gui on the same machine I do not know why that isn't working.
As far as a server article I myself would be interested in DHCP, a web server maybe wordpress or apache. And a LAMP stack. An rsync server, and ssh for login security would be interesting. Settings for these services from the server side.
