Admin Login
Login is the first screen you'll encounter when accessing the Obsidian admin web application.
Enter the user name and password provided to you by Carfey Software or your administrator.
Note that the Remember me option may be disabled in the Scheduler Settings tab, so it may not be present in your installation. Choosing this option will avoid the need to log in each time your session expires.
Default User: Each Obsidian installation which uses native authentication (the default) starts with a single user named admin with password changeme. You should use this to log in to Obsidian for the first time, and promptly change your password to something secure.
Password Complexity
As of Obsidian 6.0.0, native authentication enforces password complexity. While the complexity regular expression has a default, administrators can control the complexity requirements through scheduler settings.
The default regular expression enforces the following complexity requirements:
- At least 8 characters
- Must contain at least 1 uppercase letter
- Must contain at least 1 lowercase letter
- Must contain 1 number
- Must contain one of these special characters
$ % # * & - . ! @ = ^ ( ) [ ] {} | ' “ , < > ? - Spaces permitted
When users login with passwords that are not sufficiently complex, a banner will display reminding them to change their password to increase its strength. It will go away once they update their password. All password updates will need to adhere to password complexity.
Session Expiry
Your login session will not expire as long as you have an open page in Obsidian. You must log out or close all Obsidian tabs in your browser and wait for your session to expire or you will remained logged in.
