Hmm, weird.
I guess there's a good chance that it is not using the enable password, so
try to leave to "ip http authentication local" line out and create a new
user with the "username ray password mosely" command and see if that will
let you in.

Subject: RE: Catalyst 2900XL Web Management password
Thanks for the tips.
However the authentication option is not available
on my switch.
I've got:
Switch(config)#ip http ?
access-class Restrict access by access-class
path Set base path for HTML
port HTTP port
server Enable HTTP server
I presume HTTP server was already enabled as I am
able to connect to the web page, but I can't get
authenticated.
I'll look into those books.
Thanks again,
Ray Mosely, CCNA

Try the following:
Switch(config)#ip http server
Switch(config)#ip http authentication enable
This tells the switch to use the enable password for web access too.
OR
Switch(config)#ip http server
Switch(config)#ip http authentication local
Switch(config)#username ray password mosely
This tells the switch to use the local user database for access, plus it
will add you to it.
As for books, I am currently reading the BCMSN book by Karen Webb which is a
little too technical sometimes. I also just bought the CCIE LAN Switching
book which is a heavy thing, but after having flipped some pages I think it
looks pretty good. There are many good reviews about it. Also, many people
think that the Exam Cram book is good too - but I haven't seen it.
Hth,
Ole

Subject: Catalyst 2900XL Web Management password
I've got a 2900XL that my predecessor set up.
I went through the Cisco routine for recovering
from lost passwords, and have good console and
telnet access to the CLI.
But I can't get into the Web interface. It asks
for a username and password.
Two questions:
1. how can I change the web interface username
and password from the CLI?
2. any primers or tutorials on Catalyst switches
than anyone can recommend? Quick and dirty,
and on the Web, just until I can get some
books ordered.
Thanks,
