🔑 Default Passwords

Ludus templates use default credentials for provisioning with Ansible.

If your use case requires hardened machines, contact us for more information about a Ludus Enterprise license which enables key based SSH and certificate based WinRM provisioning.

Default Machine Credentials​

  • Kali
    • kali:kali (OS)
    • kali:password (KasmVNC - https port 8444)
  • Windows
    • localuser:password (local Administrator)
    • LUDUS\domainuser:password
    • LUDUS\domainadmin:password (Domain Admin)
  • Debian based boxes
    • debian:debian
  • Others
    • localuser:password

Changing the default Windows domain accounts and passwords​

It's possible to change the default Windows domain accounts and passwords by editing the defaults.ad_domain_admin, defaults.ad_domain_admin_password, defaults.ad_domain_user, and defaults.ad_domain_user_password keys in the Ludus config file.

note

You must set all keys in the defaults object if you define any of them.

defaults:
  ...
  ad_domain_admin: DA-John.Doe
  ad_domain_admin_password: CorrectHorseBatteryStaple
  ad_domain_user: John.Doe
  ad_domain_user_password: letmein
  ...

These values are used by the setup-win-domain.yml playbook to create the domain admin and domain user accounts.
