[Leaplist] IPCop Password

[Randall Perry]

Linux passwords are case sensitive.
You can reset the password for root by running in single-user mode and
running passwd.
To set the password for admin, type 'passwd admin'

You will have to go into the web interface to enable ssh access in
order to log in.
Remember, the default ssh port for ipcop is 222.
