I was in the same situation myself a few days ago.  I'm not sure if the Deian 
installer scripts screwed it up or if I just forgot the password.  I am using 
the unstable Debian distribution and zope package version 2.5.1-2.7

You can reset the password by running this command as root:

  zope-zpasswd  -u Admin -p xxxxxx /var/lib/zope/access

My emergency user was Admin, I suppose the emergency username can be changed, 
if so just look at that file to verify the username that you have.

Hope this helps,
