You do not need authentication information to start or use Eclipse, but you do need authentication information to connect to a runtime engine in the Web services view of Eclipse. Authentication to EAServer requires the same information from Eclipse as you would supply in EAServer Manager (user name and password).
Eclipse is not installed as part of the standard EAServer
installation. To run Eclipse you must have a complete JDK installation
(jdk1.4 or higher), which is installed as part of the standard EAServer
installation.
