Subject: [OpenStack-docs] Image-Guide - Logging into Ubuntu/CentOS/RHEL/Fedora Cloud Images

Hi,

I wanted to gather input on whether we think it's worth mentioning that there is no default password for majority of the cloud images, thus requiring some other method of getting access, i.e. ssh-keypair injection, modifying the image, etc.

I mention this because our team (Rackspace Training for OpenStack) spends a lot of time explaining this to newcomers who only have experience with the CirrOS images that contain default username/password.

Thanks!

Matt Dorn
