Hi,

This is my first time ever using Linux. I have just installed Fedora Core 2. During installation, I put in the password for the admin using the number keys on the right, with the num lock key on.

After installation when I try to login using the username: administrator and the password I created, with the num lock key on, I get a message saying that user name or the password is not correct. By the way I tried it with the num lock key off too.
...

Hi, please note that the admin user in Linux is called 'root', not administrator.
Put root as the username (in lowercase!), and then the password you put in during installaton.


Hope this helps.
