Retrying setup: OpenWrt communication error:

I followed the tutorial, but I can't understand this line, where, and how to do it.

Change password: passwd hass

Is default password "hass" https://github.com/kvj/hass_openwrt#ubus-configuration

[kvj]

Nope. The command passwd hass changes a password of user hass. There's no default password (if you manually add lines to the /etc/passwd)

[kvj]

and answering your question, passwd hass is a shell command. So you execute it from the command line

I added those line via Winscp.

and answering your question, passwd hass is a shell command. So you execute it from the command line

so to set topsecertpassword I have to issue following command from ssh

passwd hass topsecertpasswor

[yousaf465]

I ran the command as following

root@OpenWrt:~# passwd hass
Changing password for hass
New password:
Retype password:
passwd: password for hass changed by root
root@OpenWrt:~#

and used the following configuration but

The issue seems to be the SSL certificate, how to fix that? On chrome I download the certificate and followed the official method mentioned in OpenWrt wiki, but how to get that certificate for HA?

I can skip the certificate validation step probably, but out of curiosity, why do you need ssl/https with self-signed certificates in your setups?
