You can set the user name (default is admin) and also the password in the viper.conf file.

If this was not set then a random password will be generated for admin and stored on first start. The easiest way then is to set a new admin user in viper.conf (e.g. admin2) and a password. Then (Re) start viper-web.

I'm closing this for now, but it seems like the process is a bit confusing. Maybe it should be reviewed.

@botherder well.. I didn't want to start with "admin:admin"... an alternative approach would have been to use a default (e.g. admin:admin) and refuse to do anything useful until this is changed.. Otherwise people will just start spinning up Viper instances on AWS with default login that can easily be taken over..!? :-/

Yes, you are right. I think the general approach is valid, let's just review that the process is clear.
