Hi everyone
I'm running Splunk 6.1.1 Build 207789 over linux i386 is the free version. So I'm facing this situation, I got troubles with the password. I had to reset the password to recover it. So far is ok but now I got access to splunk web console with out splunk ask for login and password taking to the user automatically to splunk apps.
Tis situation is stopping me to configure splunk universal forwarder for linux hosts. I'm following this how to

So in the step 5 I have this.
Step 5: Configure Forwarder connection to Index Server:
/opt/splunkforwarder/bin/splunk add forward-server hostname.domain:9997
So when I type this command in the linux console the server ask me for login and password

Splunk username: admin
Password:
Login failed
I'd like to recover the login scree.
