Zope on SuSE 9

Hi, I am trying to get Zope running on SuSE 9. I get it running okay when I install it from the SuSE 9 CD and start it with '/etc/init.d/zope start' but cannot get signed into the http://local:8080/manage page that is the first step in managing Zope. Mozilla opens an authentication form window but the authentication fails. I am trying to sign in using the default user 'superuser' and password '123'. It fails every time. I even did a complete reinstall of my entire SuSE 9 system Zope does not recognize user 'superuser' with password '123'. Any ideas? Perhaps a Zope configuration file I need to configure? Or something I need to put into Zope's environment? Stuck on this for 48 hours now. Please help. Thanks, Roger :-|
