I downloaded and installed a trial version of Cisco Secure ACS v.4.2
The install finished OK. When I try to access the server by http://server:2002 I'm presented with a login and password screen. I dont know what to enter here. I tried entering local admin user and password but it doesn't work. Is there some default username and password that I should use?

Didn't you create an account when installing ACS (for ACS itself)? You should use that administrator account.

Which option did you click (checkbox), windows authentication or local ACS only?

I clicked local ACS only.

You may need to logon locally to the box first and create an ACS account. I'm a bit rusty on that, isn't there a command line interface available where you can use the documentation to create a userid via the proper syntax?

Yes you are right. I first had to login locally on the server where ACS is installed to be able to create an Administrator account that can be used to access ACS management from another PC. Since I didn't have java installed on the server where ACS is installed I tried to access it directly from another PC.
Thank you!!!
Post install, I believe you need to use http://127.0.0.1:2002 from the device CSACS is installed on.
After that, I think you are prompted to setup a local username and password for administration.
Try using the loopback address, and read the interface carefully for and guidance on the creation of an admin account.

Yes you are spot on. Since I dind't have java installed on the server where ACS is installed, I was trying to access it from another PC. When I logged through http://127.0.0.1:2002 I was presented with an option to create an administrator account.
