When creating a new aegir install, at the end of the install process we print a login link, but it's not hugely obvious in the terminal output. It could easily be missed, but is by far the most important thing in there, I'd suggest adding a few blank lines and some ****s or something:

You can log in to your Aegir frontend, using the URL:

This came up once before, and the way we tried to fix it was putting that nice big bold 'Login to $site' link at the top of the site node with the pretty picture of a house :)

The intention was to not even bother making it easier to find that link in the log, but display it more generally in the site node itself.

I guess if this issue is coming up, it isn't obvious enough yet :)

I think it is about the one-time link on Aegir/Hostmaster install, not on site install.

We do that in BOA with something like this extracted from the standard install log/output:

Octopus [Thu Aug 25 17:57:21 EDT 2011] ==> INIT A: All done!
 
Octopus [Thu Aug 25 17:57:26 EDT 2011] ==> ACCESS -> Aegir is now installed. You can visit it at http://aegir.domain/user/reset/1/1314308527/038498e1adbd1d35203e9fc8a9a1d91a
 
Octopus [Thu Aug 25 17:57:30 EDT 2011] ==> BYE!

Oh right - Steven did say 'new aegir install' - I missed that. Ignore my FUD..

Either way, this is the same code that is used on regular drupal sites when installed by Aegir.

So attention will need to be given to how it looks in the task log as viewed through the frontend as well

Edit: Argh wrong again! I'll just shut up..

I think this is a great idea. I have pushed 5b3bcbb to 2.x, waiting for jenkins' green before merging.
