Default passwords for TSO and CICS ?

Hi,
same site, other host.
Why someone would world-expose a IBM-Mainframe to the internet (23/tcp) is beyond me, but perhaps they don't know about x3270. ;-) Anyway, when I open a session, I am presented with several options:
LOGON userid            TSO
CICSI                   integration CICS
CICSP                   production CICS
CICST test CICS (and there's the company-logo on top, but I omitted that :-] ) I must admit that I don't no either of the above OSs - I have limited experience with zVM/CMS (-> ipl Linux S/390), but some of the usual default accounts I tried didn't work.
Does anybody know some TSO default accounts, if any ?
Or CICS ?

cheers,
Rainer
