It does say
Welcome to Kindle!
but then wants a password! I tried all forms (enter, root etc) none worked.
Log in over the USB cable, establish public key authentication before changing any of the options.
(You had to change options to ssh over wifi - now guess why ssh over USB is the default. )
Alternately, use telnet over USB cable (both servers are started at the same time).
