I have a fresh install of Jenkins as a service on my Linux machine. When Jenkins installs, it creates a 'jenkins' user, but I can't seem to find the default password for it anywhere.
I'm trying to secure my system, so if the default password is '123' or something insecure that I just haven't thought of yet, that's a problem.
Thanks!
The initial Administrator password should be found under the Jenkins installation path (set at Step 2 in Jenkins Installation). For default installation location to C:\Program Files\Jenkins, a file called initialAdminPassword can be found under C:\Program Files\Jenkins\secrets.
Default username is 'admin' and the password is the one from initialAdminPassword when you follow the above path. Then logout and login to make sure new password works.
Default password for user jenkins is just "jenkins".
I don't believe it has any password. You should be able to do:
sudo passwd jenkins
This will prompt for you to set a password.
Alternatively you could create the jenkins user prior to installing, and it would leverage that one.
