I just installed this and to log on the first time, it's asking for a userid and password. Any0one have a clue what I should use to get started?

You should have entered them during the installation and therefore, remember them. If you have not installed yet; burn a new CD

Use the userid and password you chose during the installation. Honestly, you did. :wink: It was on the page where you put in your full name. The userid defaults to the first name from your full name, so that if you put in 'John Smith' in the full name field, 'john' (all lower case) will have gone in the username field. But you could have (might have) changed this at the time.

And you did put in a password of your own choice. In fact you had to put it in twice, otherwise the installer wouldn't have gone on to the next stage.
