If the original installer did not change the password after the installation was complete, for sys (internal) it is 'change_on_install', and for system it is 'manager'. However, if the password is not one of those, login in to the system as 'oracle' and run sqldba and connect internal. If the database is set up to have external authentication of users, you should connect without problem and then you can issue an alter user command to change the password.
