We almost never use the GUI setup, until the last step in a restore
process, we always use the console port.

Odd thing is that you HAVE to enter "admin" as the passord to be able to
change the password; note: > > (current) UNIX password:

Resetting the password using the front panel, gave the same result. We
did follow the prompts and change the password, subsequently we went in
through the GUI and set the password to 'admin'. Then checked through the
console port and were able to login as admin, password admin.... Very
strange.

We do several RaQ upgrades a day, and this is the first that I have seen
act like this...
