Introduction

With the Squirro cluster running you can access the Squirro app via:

https://<ip-address>

Creating a Squirro user

By default there is no user set up for the Squirro web interface. To create a new admin user proceed as follows:

1. Visit https://<ip-address> (see below if you don't know the IP address)
2. Click the Signup Button: 
   
3. Create a a user with a valid email address and a secure password. This will become the admin user.
4. To prevent further user from being created this way, you can disable the signup option as documented in the Configuration section.

Finding the IP Address

If you do not know the IP address of the machine, there are a number of ways to find it.

After booting the IP address is displayed in the console on the login screen. It might take a while for this address to update after booting.

Alternatively you can also log into the machine using a username and password. Reference the next section Accessing Squirro Server for information. Once you have a session on the server, type the following command:

ifconfig eth0

This will output the machine's IP address.
