Does your principals.xml contain the following?

   <users>
     <user username="admin" password="goodpwd">
       <description>The default administrator</description>
       <group-membership group="administrators" />
       <group-membership group="guests" />
       <group-membership group="users" />
     </user>

Perhaps I'm just lucky, since it works fine on my win98 machine with the 
configured password, and has since 0.9.something.

C:\java\orion>java -jar admin.jar ormi://localhost/ admin badpasswd -shutdown
Error: java.lang.SecurityException: Invalid username/password for default 
(admin
)

C:\java\orion>java -jar admin.jar ormi://localhost/ admin goodpwd -shutdown

C:\java\orion>


I agree the docs are poor and have spent way too much time on trial and 
error.  It's been way too many years since I thought this was entertaining...
