How do find or create a user that can use the admin operations for the object gateway? 

The manual says "Some operations require that the user holds special administrative capabilities."

But I can't find if there is a pre setup user with these, or how to create one myself.

You would need to create the user. As an example I just created the following on my cluster:

radosgw-admin user create --uid=admin --display-name="JuanJose Galvez" --caps="usage=read, write; users=read, write; buckets=read, write;"

You'll notice in the output that it has the following capabilities which normal users do not have:

  "caps": [
        { "type": "buckets",
          "perm": "*"},
        { "type": "usage",
          "perm": "*"},
        { "type": "users",
          "perm": "*"}],

I hope that helps. If you need more information on the API and what caps are needed for which functions that is found over here: http://ceph.com/docs/master/radosgw/adminops/
