Convention over Configuration

Choice is a good thing, so just about everything in Vagrant can be changed. However, it's easier for others to use Vagrant when you follow a set of conventions. Now, while these aren't enforced conventions, if you plan to distribute the box, it is recommended you follow the following where possible:

    Hostname: vagrant-[os-name], e.g. vagrant-debian-lenny
    Domain: vagrantup.com
    Root Password: vagrant
    Main account login: vagrant
    Main account password: vagrant

Also keep in mind that, in order to simplify configurations, Vagrant make assumptions about the main account login/password. It will assume the text 'vagrant' for both values. If any of these are changed, you will need to remember to specify them in the Vagrantfile using the appropriate configuration methods before packaging the box.
