Can't login to Virtual Server Admin

I installed virtual server on a server today. I click on the link for the administration page and up comes a login screen. I try to login with my domain account and it tells me i don't have rights. Is there a default uname and password? If not then how do i log in? I read that i have to have local user rights but this is a domain server that has virtual server installed on it. What step am i missing?

Try connecting from a workstation. Also, use the fqdn name (host.mydoamin.local) and make sure *.mydomain.local is in the trusted local intranet zone in IE so that it allows windows authentication.

Still the same problem. I did what you said above and IE comes up with a not authorized page.

Is windows authentication working or do you get a logon box?

I reinstalled and got this message after installation. I will install the admin site on another computer since it seems that it has to be on another computer rather than the VM. Now it says that i log in as the local admin but the server is on a domain. does this mean that the server that is running the VM service must be on a workgroup?
