The "nixos" and "root" accounts have empty passwords.
To log in over ssh you must set a password for either "nixos" or "root"
with `passwd` (prefix with `sudo` for "root"), or add your public key to
/home/nixos/.ssh/authorized_keys or /root/.ssh/authorized_keys.
If you need a wireless connection, type
`sudo systemctl start wpa_supplicant` and configure a
network using `wpa_cli`. See the NixOS manual for details.
