Hi all.
Love this software. I've been using the astropi3 set up for a year now, but just through my home network via Ethernet and vnc viewer on my tablet. Also with kstars on my pc.
I decided to give the hotspot a go because I might try some dark sky imaging this year, but for the life of me I can't remember my hotspot password. I can go into the pi's desktop through vnc but it wontw seem to let me edit it, unless I know said password.

any help would be much appreciated.
Jason

Hi Jasonmur,

I had the same issue before and had to find the password in the Github script. I think the password for the Field WiFi is the name of the Field WiFi access point and then suffixed with '_password'. For example, if your FieldWifi access point that you want to connect to is called "MyPi_FieldWifi_5G", then the password would be "MyPi_FieldWifi_5G_password" (follow same approach for the 2.4GHz access point which does not have '5G' in it).

Source, lines #422-428:
github.com/rlancaste/AstroPi3/blob/maste...upAstroRaspbianPi.sh

Hi feilimb.
Thanks for the quick response.
I believe you have it, because I did find a note to myself on my phone with something_password...I was being too cryptic for my own good!
Thanks for the help, I'll give it a go when home.

Thanks so much. Feilimb.
I believe you are right because I did have a note on my phone to myself with desktop_password. Didn't make sense to me, but now it does.
Appreciate the help. Thanks again.

Hi.
Thanks. It actually turned out to be raspberrypi_password
But got there eventually!

Thanks. This is the third time I've tried to respond to your helpful reply. But I can't see anything from me appearing in the forum, apart from my initial query.
Turned it to be
raspberrypi_password

Thanks for all the work. I installed the scripts on a Rock64 with Debian and it works great over the network after I created a share for file transfer.
My only problem is can not find a VNC viewer I understand which will enable direct Ethernet cable access for a win10 computer to the Rock64.

I'm configuring a setup from a clean install of Raspberry OS (64bit) and found KStars Master will not compile unless I built and installed stellarsolver first. Therefore this step should be added to the script.
Also, if you have a chance, Please add Firecapture and OaCapture to setup. I have had difficulty installing them myself.
Thank you kindly.

Yes, the raspbian script that must build kstars from source.
With the inclusion of Stellarsolver in the master, it will not build without Stellarsolver installed first as cmake looks for references to it.
