Force.com IDE Installation - Login Required

Hello,
I'm a newbie to Salesforce and I tried to install the Force.com IDE by following the steps in the "Force.com IDE Installation" page. (https://developer.salesforce.com/page/Force.com_IDE_Installation)

In the Add Repository window, I added the Name: as "Force.com IDE" and Location: as http://media.developerforce.com/force-ide/eclipse42 as mentioned in the documentation. However after click OK Button, there is a window popping up asking the credentials. I tried with my Salesforce Developer Edition and Sandbox credentials, but still no luck. So, which credentials should I enter here?
Add Repository
Login Required

I tried with the Juno 4.2 and Kepler 4.3, but in both cases it keeps on asking the credentials. I have already installed the JDK 7 also.
Could anybody in this forum help me to solve this problem,

Thanks,

Regards,
Sudheera

Hi Sandeep,
Thanks for your reply.
I already followed above two links, but nowhere mentioned that we need to enter the credentials. The credential of my Developer or Sandbox Orgs does'nt solve the problem.

Hi Sandeep,
Yes, I followed the step by step mentioned in the above links. Both above links don't state that we need to enter Username and Password. I'm curious which Username and Password I should enter here.

Thanks,
Sudheera
