Ensure you can access the server from your network

Code: Select all

sudo sed -e 's/127.0.0.1/0.0.0.0/g' greenbone-security-assistant.service openvas-manager.service openvas-scanner.service -i 


Set your admin password:

Code: Select all

sudo runuser -u _gvm -- gvmd --user=admin --new-password="newpassword"
