I just downloaded and installed splunk enterprise. When the window pops up to run the application, I entered my Username and Password (correctly) and it doesn't work. This isn't actually the first time I've tried it. It hasn't worked any of the times I've tried doing this. I also tried using "Admin" as Username and "password." I need to be able to login for this boot camp. Please help.

@jpsnlyle,

when you install splunk the wizard guides you through all the steps neccessary to run splunk properly. There you also set your initial Splunk admin password.

The Username is: admin
The Password is: <whateveryouchoose>

After the installation you are able to access splunk via your browser.
Use the following URL: http://localhost:8000 or https://localhost:8000

This should work fine.
