If you wish to change the default username and password of `guest` / `guest`, you can do so with the `RABBITMQ_DEFAULT_USER` and `RABBITMQ_DEFAULT_PASS` environmental variables. These variables were available previously in the docker-specific entrypoint shell script but are now available in RabbitMQ directly.

$ docker run -d --hostname my-rabbit --name some-rabbit -e RABBITMQ_DEFAULT_USER=user -e RABBITMQ_DEFAULT_PASS=password %%IMAGE%%:3-management
$ docker run --detach --hostname my-rabbit --name some-rabbit \
--env RABBITMQ_DEFAULT_USER=user \
--env RABBITMQ_DEFAULT_PASS=password \
--publish 15672:15672 \
--publish 5672:5672 \
%%IMAGE%%:management
```
