# How do I log in to Ollama?

https://www.seturack.com/en/knowledgebase/article/how-to-log-in-to-ollama

1. In the panel, open **My servers** and click your server.
2. On the **Overview** tab, wait for the **App** row to say "Ollama is ready". The install takes a little longer because a model is downloaded. The page refreshes itself.
3. Click **Open app**.
4. Log in with the details from the **Email** and **Password** rows. There is no setup screen.
5. The chat screen starts with the **gemma3:1b** model selected. For a larger model, scale up the RAM, connect with SSH, run `cd /opt/seturack/ollama`, then `docker compose exec ollama ollama pull model-name`.

Further down the page, the **Username** row and the **Password** row below it are for SSH. Don't use them to log in to Ollama.

## Good to know

- The server has no graphics card, so the model runs on the CPU. The small model answers briefly and slowly, and larger models need more RAM.
- Your chats and models stay on your server. Sign-up is closed, only you open accounts.
- The site opens over HTTPS on a free `sslip.io` address based on your IP. If a certificate can't be issued, it opens over `http://` instead. Only ports 80, 443 and 22 (for SSH) are open to the outside.

To use your own domain, see [this article](https://www.seturack.com/en/knowledgebase/article/how-to-connect-your-own-domain).

**No server yet?** [Order a server with Ollama installed](https://www.seturack.com/en/ollama-vps): you choose the size and pay for what you choose.
