I downloaded this one, I needed to go in and change the address for it
to one on our network, but I was never able to find a password for it.
The docs say admin for the web login, but until I can get that address
changed it is sort of hard to do from the web.
So if I can just find the login/pw for the console I will be able to press
on.
