That's because you probably don't have an Admin user with that  
password in your database... That would be normal if you have only  
imported the Panels.

That's not normal... It needs to be fixed. Could you please a JIRA  
issue about this please? (http://jira.xwiki.org)

I'm not sure about this. I need to do some research because I think  
that you shouldn't be able to see the Administration link if you're  
not logged in...

Have you started with 1.0 beta 3 but with an empty database and only  
imported the Panels? If so then it's normal you're having problems  
because your wiki is missing all required pages and users so you can  
only log in as a superuser (that's the user defined in xwiki.cfg).

Note: As I said above I don't know why you can access the  
Administration page when you're starting with an empty wiki. I think  
it would be better to only allow access to the superuser in that  
case. Sergiu, Ludovic: can you shed some light on this?

Thanks
-Vincent
