I decided to try the NextCloud Home. I see very little in the way of Integration apart from user names and email. How to I get an administrator account on NextCloud? root does not let me in.

Solved:
The NextCloud admin account is; admin

To reset the password do this;
sudo -u apache /opt/rh/rh-php71/root/usr/bin/php /usr/share/nextcloud/occ user:resetpassword admin

    I found this document very handy with finding the default admin password
    ClearOS Documentation link here

    the command I used (and it worked a treat)
    grep adminpass /etc/clearos/nextcloud.conf

    I can ask the developer. I'm sure when I first installed it, it popped up somewhere. Where to find it is also in the app documentation (the sloping book icon in the webconfig screen).

    Nick,

    This request is coming often in the forums.
    After installation of Nextcloud, you don't have the possibility to enter the Admin pass or login as Admin. The default password is not entered or visable
    Could be addon in the webconfig, just like MariaDB in the webconfig.
