  1. stop your server from running
  2. open the startup batfile and remove the
    ?adminpass=123
    (I didn't save the original bat so the command might look a bit different). (Note: This is generally not needed when you have bought a server through a GSP).
  3. open ROWEB.ini and change the following under [IpDrv.WebServer]:
    bEnabled=true
  4. open ROWebAdmin.ini and add the following under [WebAdmin.WebAdmin]:
    AuthenticationClass=WebAdmin.MultiWebAdminAuth
  5. RUN server so that the ini file ROMultiAdmin.ini gets created.
  6. Close the server and open ROMultiAdmin.ini
  7. Edit the file to be like this:
    Spoiler!

  8. Startup the server and Login to webadmin where the username/password is Admin/Admin (case sensitive!).
  9. Setup the Admins from the webadmin (or manually edit ROMultiAdmin.ini).
Doing this and starting your server should give you the additional Administrators tab in the webadmin:

Please report if this works for you, I've been messing around with the files a bit and might have missed a step somewhere.

have you tried Admin/Admin (first letter is capital!) as login and removed the password bit from the startup command line? That is generally the default login.

if that doesn't work try the following
---
Open ROMultiadmin.ini
you will see something like this:
[Admin MultiAdminData]

this means Admin is your login.
the password is encrypted but the hash 1f95ec61b6ef02b5d2b138654da138bfdbbc7f3c stands for Admin.

so if you edit ROMultiadmin to be like this:

[Admin MultiAdminData]
DisplayName=IloveZetsumei
Password=1f95ec61b6ef02b5d2b138654da138bfdbbc7f3c
Order=DenyAllow
bEnabled=True

the password will be Admin/Admin

you could try opening ROWebAdmin.ini

under [WebAdmin.WebAdmin] changing the line:
bHttpAuth=true

and under [WebAdmin.QHCurrent] adding the line:
RequireUsername=Admin

then finally deleting ROWebAdmin.ini

Afterwards try logging in with your default set password and username Admin

-----------------

Edit: Good that you got it working. Perhaps in the creation of ROWebAdmin it copies whatever username/password you had set in the ini.
