Many of the appropriate accounts & passwords are in the documentation. Since there are many different ways to log on, we can not give you the exact userid/pasword you need. However some of the more common defaults are

SYS/CHANGE_ON_INSTALL (use this for as super-admin) SYSTEM/MANAGER (use this is semi-super-admin to create your own admin) SCOTT/TIGER (general demo account)

and the most likely connect string in 8.1.7 is ORCL. However you want to look at the TNSNAMES.ORA file to confirm that. (on http://docs.oracle.com, read the Net8 documents for understanding this file )

Also, if you get almost any book on Oracle database - like the Oracle 101 series of books - you will get this same information.

You can also use GOOGLE to look through the archives for this newsgroup - this question and the answer occur every few months.

Hope this helps
