Default Linux Login and Password HomeSeer HomeTroller Pi

[hankli]

Try using "pi" for username and "raspberry" for password and see if you can get it.

I'm having this same issue, did you have an resolution?

I tried logging into linux tools using root username/password but that didn't work, but maybe I can't login to linux tools with root? I'll try to SSH in a bit, but I'm remote so I'll have to do some port forwarding rules temporarily to get it to work.

Nope never figured it out. I didn’t really have a need to login to the console, I just wanted to make sure I had the user name and password written down.

Here's what worked to open a Linux shell for my HomeTroller Pi with HS4 from Win 10:

1: Make sure the OpenSSH Client is installed:
Go to Settings > Apps > Apps & Features > Optional Features. Search for OpenSSH Client, and choose to install the OpenSSH Client if not already installed.

2: Get your HomeTroller Pi's IP address:
Log into myhs.homeseer.com using the username and password you selected when you installed your HomeTroller Pi.
Note the IP address in the address bar for use in the next step:

3: Open a Command Prompt, and enter the following, inserting your real IP address:
SSH homeseer@<Type-IP-Address-here>
When prompted for the password, enter the the same password you used to log into myhs.homeseer.com. (Yes, even though the username is different!)

The Command Prompt should now look something like this:

C:\Users\Swail>ssh homeseer@192.168.1.2
homeseer@192.168.1.2's password:

Please be careful what you do, a Linux shell is a powerful tool!

Glad I found this thread, the above worked for me!

At first this didn't work. But I found you have to use your original password you have for myhs.homeseer.com when I installed my Pi. I had changed it since.
Lucky I found this thread!
