[Users] Cisco 7960 phones

You can set the password in the SIPDefault.cnf

I add the following line to the SIPDefault.cnf file   
    phone_password: "adgjm"

Makes it real easy to get into config mode until you get your settings 
the  way  you want them, then I use a more unique specific one in the 
SIP<mac-address>.cnf file for each phone.

You can get to the SIP code documentation on the Cisco website without a 
login. It does a pretty good job of describing the parameters and the 
various config files.

As Atle mentioned the default is 'cisco' until you set it in a config file.
