3.1 Administering Linux (CentOS 6)
3.1.1 Logging into CentOS
The default credentials for logging into the system are username=concert, password=concert.
Note:
The username and password are case sensitive.
Note:
Although possible, it is not recommended to log into the system directly as root. The suggested method is to
log in as user concert and if root privileges are required, execute the command su which will prompt you for
the root password which is concert.
3.1.2 Statically configuring the server IP address
By default, the Concert DVD server installation places the server in DHCP client mode. A DHCP server must
be running on your network to enable the server to receive an IP address.
If you do not have a DHCP server or prefer to statically configure the server’s IP address, complete the
following procedure.
To statically configure the server IP address:
1. Contact your IT department and request the following:

Static IP Address.

Netmask.

Gateway Address.

Primary DNS Address.

Secondary DNS Address.
2. Power on the Concert Server and log in as user=concert (default password=concert).
3. Type system-config-network-tui at the prompt and press <ENTER>
4. Using the arrow keys, select Device configuration from the menu and press <ENTER>
