[edit] authentication
- goto ZM Options > System
- OPT_USE_AUTH > Check
- this will log you out. Log back in with the default user/pass: admin:admin
- goto ZM Options > Users (this tab will not be available until you enable authentication)
- reset the default admin password, would recommend also to change the username
- create a new account to manage everything as using the default is not recommended. Keep the default admin/root account for emergencies or lockouts.
