you cant change the name as root is the default administrative name, as for the password you can do that via a telnet session using the passwd command.

Yes, doesn't this just create another user with root privileges?

Have you read the post?
Not everything can be spoon fed.
If you want to share your box externally, a read up is more than needed if you don't want issues.
Lots of posts on here of good & bad experiences of remote streaming, SEARCH & READ usually helps.
Everyone will have different requirements so hard to answer your question.
