There's no default password, and the only pre-defined user is root.
If it's a ready made VM ask those who made it.
If you installed it yourself then you should have been asked to enter it.

There is no default password. It's whatever you set it to when you installed it. Also, please don't a) make more than one post at a time about the same topic and b) hijack other people's threads - I split one of these away from someone else's and merged them into one.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

You'll need to ask them as that's nothing we control.
