Kali isn’t running the Greenbone OS (GOS) so i have moved this topic into the correct category.

Your problem might be related to the following topic:

my problem is different with it. after installed, there is no password. so I used gvmd command to set the pasword, but it is not working, it still not login on the web UI


init setup ,there is no password.
