Hi,
A recent update seems to have locked me out of the webserver/web remote. Now when I try to access the web remote, I'm presented with an http-auth request for username and password. Digging through text files in ~/.xbmc I found that the default password seems to be "abc", but no username seems to be set anywhere. I've tried "abc", "XBMC", "xbmc" and plenty of others but can't log in. I've hunted through this forum and the wiki and can't find any record of what the username for the http-auth is. What is it?

Hello
Not shure but think the username is "xbmc" and that you have to set the passwor -> go to settings - network - web server and input whatever you want.

Default user is "xbox" and password is blank. There was a bug in settings that sets the blank password feild to "No Pass" but it's masked so it looks like 7 asterisks for the beta 1 tag. This has since been fixed. So if you delete the password until it fills itself in the pass is actually blank.
