Hi David;

Currently the thinking is that we don't want to set the system up with
default passwords which would allow anyone a window into accessing the
applicaiton remotely.  Making it "just work" on installation is
unfortunately at odds with that idea.

I think we might be able to do something like add a "first run"
utility that could be used to set up the initial  password from the
server.

Best Wishes,
Chris Travers
