It's just that it is not mentioned anywhere. I don't disagree with the intent,
but it has to be made explicit. Sorry, I am not used to doing things in
ad hoc manner.

Having no user name and password (master password is not used in this case at
all, FYI) is OK in certain cases, but not all.

Also, the domain.xml has the lines
     <http-listener id="admin-listener" address="0.0.0.0" port="4848"
acceptor-threads="1" security-enabled="false" default-virtual-server="__asadmin"
server-name="" xpowered-by="true" enabled="true" family="inet"
blocking-enabled="false"/>


What are they for?
What's the use of __asadmin virtual server? Why is it there in domain.xml by
default when it is not used.

Sorry Ludo, this needs to be thought through.
