    Hi folks,

    Windows Server 2008 32 bit "“ as guest(VM) (new installation)
    KVM "“ virtualization software

    After installation completed (Core installation), having spent an hour I'm unable to set user and password (Other user)

    username = satimisvm07
    Password = v32mSMSL08/pwCODEvm/vmSMSL0832/etc.

    Always popup = The user name or password is incorrect

    I found following document;
    Windows Server 2008 Password Complexity Requirements
    http://thebackroomtech.com/2008/03/10/windows-server-2008-password-complexity-requirements/

    but can't find a solution. Please help. TIA

    Remark:
    I have another Windows Server 2008 64bit running on this virtual machine. Any conflict?

    No idea, have a look at the KVM documentation.

    I doubt whether the problem is accountable to KVM

    Something strange happened to Windows Server 2008 here.

    I created the 1st VM (guest), say VM-1, running 64bit Windows Server 2008 without problem including creating administrator an user passwords. However after running about half day to configure the server I couldn't login with the same password. I don't know WHY, always saying "The user name or password is incorrect ". I can't create/reset the password because VM-1 can't detect the USB/Flash drive.

    Therefore I created another VM, say VM-2. It worked until now without problem on login. However there are problem on Audio device and USB Mass Storage device, 2 "!" appearing there. Unfortunately I couldn't find the drivers from Asus. Audio and USB drivers for 64bit Windows Server 2008 are unavailable. I tried the respective drivers for 64 bit Windows 7 without success.

    The USB drive has been successfully attached to Windows Server 2008 but it can't detect it. There are another 4 VMs on this virtual machines running Ubuntu9.10, Fedora12, Debian503, etc. All of them detect the USB driver without problem. Files can be upload and download from the said drive. I ran command on console to attach the device to VMs with output "Successful ", same to Windows Server 2008.

    For driver reason I create another VM, say VM-3, running 32bit Windows Server 2008. After installation completed it asked for creating password (without asking for creating user name), only saying "Other User ". No password can satisfy the request. That is the complete story and the present situation.

    I have no idea how to proceed except deleting this VM and start over again.

    (Remark: Audio and USB drivers of Windows Server 2008 for the captioned mobo are unavailable, both 32 and 64bit. I checked Asus website. The same was also confirmed by Asus Technical Support. I have 32bit Vista running on another HD of this PC (for testing only). It works without problem on Audio and USB drive. I'm in anticipation using their drivers on 32 bit Windows Server 2008. Otherwise there will be no solution on Windows Server 2008, both 32 and 64bit. Audio is NOT important to server but USB drive is. Although I have way getting around the later, the users don't. They are NOT administrator.)
