Sometimes what 'seems ok' is actually not - which credentials did you use? From what you wrote, I'd assume you tried system/manager, sys/change_on_install etc. which will never ever work.

Enterprise Manger has it's own user management. At the logon screen, there is a help button, which might actually help you (because at least on windows) it tells you within one or two clicks what the default username/password for OEM is. (and you'll be asked to change it immediately).
