How can I set the JM up where when you go to the admin.cgi there is already a default username and password entered?

Hey Steven,

You can do this by modifying your _interface.html template, stored in your /templates/interface/ directory.

However, bear in mind that *anyone* who goes to the login page will then be able to login with that account. I'm sure that this is precisely what you're trying to do, I just wanted to note the (obvious) security implications.

Just change these lines in your _interface.html file to the following:

lines 74 & 75:

<td><font face="arial" style="font-size: 12px;">Username &nbsp;</font></td>
<td><input type="text" name="id" value="default_username" size=14></td>

lines 178 & 179:

<td><font face="arial" style="font-size: 12px;">Password &nbsp;</font></td>
<td><input type="password" name="pw" value="default_password" size=14></td>

And just change the values in red for your 'guest' account. Hope this helps!
