Hi there,

Yep, I think its supposed to default, to the user name and password
specified in the koha.conf file.

It should tell you that during installation as well.
Something like this.

==================
= Authentication =
==================

This release of Koha has a new authentication module.  If you are not already
using basic authentication on your intranet, you will be required to log in to
access some of the features of the intranet.  You can log in using the userid
and password from the /etc/koha.conf configuration file at any time.  Use the
"Members" module to add passwords for other accounts and set their
permissions.

Press the <ENTER> key to continue:

If you didnt get that message thats something we will need to fix.

Hope its going well now.

Chris
