Fresh install webui login failed and access denied on load merge

logans1597 — Fri, 24 Jun 2022 21:58:38 GMT

Hello,

It's my first time installing nso on my mac m1 laptop. I did it via local install and ncs_cli -u admin works fine. I can do "?" and see many commands that I have access to. After searching for hours on how to solve this, it seemed like I need to get access to aaa authentication. However, when I do either one of the code below, I get syntax error: element does not exit.

show configuration aaa authentication users user
show running-config aaa authentication users user

Can someone tell me what Im doing wrong? I can't access webui using default admin/admin credentials or do load merge load.xml because I get access denied error.

Hello,

Can you try to use this command since you have an issue related to AAA.

 ncs_cli -u admin -noaaa

Then execute the commands the show command aaa and give us the output that you got

You don’t need to be in the config mode . Can you try the command again without the command config .

You should have a default config for aaa and nacm .

Here the config that you should add

You have to use ncs_cli

Here the step:

I create a user admin that using a password admin . You can change it if you want.

ncs_cli -u admin -C --noaaa
config
load merge terminal
Copy paste the configuration below ( aaa & nacm)
commit

aaa authentication users user admin
 uid        65534
 gid        65534
 password   admin
 ssh_keydir /var/ncs/homes/admin/.ssh
 homedir    /var/ncs/homes/admin
!

nacm write-default permit
nacm groups group admin
 user-name [ admin ]
!
nacm rule-list admin
 group [ admin ]
 rule any-access
  action permit
 !
 cmdrule any-command
  action permit
 !
!

It should solve your problem

Hi,

I am currently doing the NCS Orchestrator and seem to have a similar issue. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.
