I'm assuming you are using the latest RC of F17? Sounds to me like you didn't name the system you installed it on, so it defaulted to 'localhost'. When you installed, did it not ask to add a new user account?
Have you tried logging in with root?

GUI login? Echo other comment about setting up a mortal user during install or first boot. Have you tried to login an root via CLI? (ctrl-alt-f2)
But really questions for F17 should be directed at the test list. F17 isn't prime time yet.
