 * I installed WordPress on my new domain
    I edited the wp-config file with the 
   MySQL info I get a Login screen, but do not know what the username/password is..
 * Do I use the MySQL name/password that is in the wp-config?
    Is there a “default”
   username/password to use initially?
 * There is probabbly an easy answer to this, but I am unable to find it, thanks.

 * Once I set up a blog, wordpress emails me a password for the admin (username)
   If lost you can request that a new password be emailed.
 * Not the MySQL password/username.
