+
+Now you can access peertube at <https://peertube.localhost:9000>
+
+The root account can be logged in with username "root". The password can be obtained with the command 
+```bash
+journalctl -u peertube | perl -ne '/password: (.*)/ && print $1'
+```
+
+or just
+
+```bash
+journalctl -u peertube | grep password
+```
+
+and look at the end of the line.
+
+Creating other accounts has to be enabled via the admin interface. `Administration > Configuration > Basic > Enable Signup` or just add an account directly from `Administration > Create user`. But functionality can also be tested from the root account.
