Unraid default password & login

Slackware-based NAS / hypervisor OS. The root account ships with NO password — Unraid prompts you to set one in the web UI after first boot.

Use these credentials for the very first login to Unraid only. The full vendor documentation linked below explains how to rotate them and harden the install.

Default username
root
Default password
Set during install / first-run wizard
Default port
80(HTTP)
Default admin URL
http://tower.local

Notes & recovery

If web UI is locked out, set root password from local console with: passwd root

Change the default immediately

Anyone with internet access can try the published default on Unraid. Set a strong, unique password the moment you finish first-time setup, ideally before exposing the service to your LAN.
