DRAC-ERA/0 login issue

[quaqu at mytweakers.net]

I followed your advice, but it did not work. The login counter was  
reset, but still root/calvin did not work. On the card itself, I found  
a serial number, with the addition of: "A02", maybe that is another  
clue....
I know that the DRAC has its own users etc, but I can't configure them  
anywhere. After booting and ctrl+D I can only choose IP-address etc,  
but nothing else. I am getting a little bit hopeless and want to  
finish this asap. I have it at home atm, but want to get my sites  
online in the new year.

Thanks in advance!
