I had to powered switched off this appliance as in order to shutdown is requiered to be root, but there is not password for root posted on main appliance webpage.
what is the root password ?????
Ubuntu does NOT have a root account/root password set by default. Just sudo and use your own password.
With Ubuntu it's recommended that you use sudo and not a root account.
If you really want to use the root account, you can open a terminal windows and type the following from the command line
sudo passwd root
it boot failed on my machine.
I use vmware 5.5.2 build 29772
Someone could give a help
I've just booted this appliance and it asks for a username and password.
How do I find out the username and password to use?

Taken from the VMTN page...
"Primary account
Username: ubuntu
Password: ubuntu"

Doesn't work.
I just loaded the VM Player and Ubuntu 6.1 Server but it starts in a terminal mode and not in a graphical mode.
I can't "init 5" or startx or anthing without it asking me for a root password (which is NOT "ubuntu").
How do I get to see the Graphical interface for Ubuntu in this appliance? Please let me know the root password or how to set it if it's needed as well. Thanks.
Well, seeing as this is called a "Server Edition", then most likely X is NOT installed. If you do a "Server Installation" on most Linux distros, it will not install X Windows.
I can't get a network connection with this VM. When I try:
sudo /sbin/ifup -a
I get:
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
eth0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
eth0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
Bind socket to interface: No such device
Failed to bring up eth0.
On the top of the VM where the ethernet icon is, the checkmark is next to Connected, and the setting below that is "Bridged". I have another VM (built on Gentoo) in which the net works, but this Ubuntu server doesn't seem to. Any suggestions?
nevermind - this post here:

says to comment out the line in /etc/iftab - after I did that and rebooted the VM, eth0 works
