      Hi,
      I feel really dumb right now. I have enabled the Nexus Controller on my local Netgate Firewall, and get the Nexus Authentication page when I go to the secure URL, but my credentials are not accepted. My confustion is that I use a PW manager, and it is recognizing the Nexus Auth page the same as the legacy PFSense Auth page at the same IP address, and is offering the same username and pw. Those same creds work on the legacy login page, just not the Nexus page. I don't (yet) have 2fa enabled, so that probably isn't a factor. Help!? ;-) (And thanks!)

        @gdb Proton Pass doesn't even recognize the username field.

          To be clear: The error I receive is "Invalid Credentials for user admin" using the same credentials that I have used on the legacy login screen.
