    1) user: root, password: password
    2) depends on your network setup; your choice are Samba or DNS
    3) provided at install time; if need be, you can reset in the database
    4) yes, see http://wiki.opengarden.org/Deki_Wiki...s/LDAP_Support

    I noticed that too with my vm install. Ssh fails every time. The only access i have is via vmware console.

    SSH access for the root account is disabled by default. You could enable it (and you can find out how with a forum search) but it would be better for you to create another normal user account and use it to access the VM via SSH, then sudo as that account.

    Open up /etc/ssh/sshd_config and set "PermitRootLogin" to "yes"
