Administrator password
What is the default admin password, I can not get it to change which I need to configure my lan. It seems to default to DHCP but I'm not running it on my lan.

It is my understanding that there isn't an admin pwd
When running from the CD the only way to access a root login prompt is to open the special root console found under the Knoppix menu item on the start menu. I think if you install it to the hard drive then you can create other accounts. So I suspect that you will have to use this root console to perform your configuration.
Hope it helps,
Scott

To set the root passwd:
1) Go to the KNOPPIX menu and open a root shell
2) Enter: passwd root
3) set the new password

Or, you could try:
sudo su
from any shell. That will effectivly log you in as root. You can use 'sudo' before any command to run it as root.

Or...
You can run a shell as root...from the KNOPPIX menu and 'passwd' the password to what ever you want.
