Hi Chris,
Open a terminal or command line window.
Try "sudo bash"
Try "su root"
sudo (super-user do) should ask for YOUR password, and leave you in a superuser
command line.
su (switch/set user) should ask for root's password; try blank, or just hit
return. You should have set a password during set up, so try those options,
too.
The restriction is that a superuser can't log in remotely, and can't login
directly on the console. You ALWAYS have to log in as someone else, then
elevate your access.
Once you're in as root by either method, use passwd to change the root password
for yourself so other users can have accounts, but not just bump to root.

I have just installed dokuwiki on my Ubuntu 10.4 server, no problem at
all installing it and the default start page pops up ready to be edited.
However, there is one big problem, there seems to be no admin user so I
can't get to the admin menus at all. How do I get to configure some
users?
