Hello. I cannot access the Virtual 2005 administrator page. It requests username and password. The machine is not on a domain yet so I use the local admin and password. After I put them in, the page tries to connect. After a few minutes, It asked me for credentials again. I put in the same ones and it continues attempting to connect. <br />
<br />
I assume it is a permissions problem.<br />
<br />
I follow this article for setting IIS.<br />

Cannot connect to Virtual Server 2005 R2 SP1 administrator web page on Server 2008

Microsoft Virtual Server was a virtualization solution that facilitated the creation of virtual machines on the Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows Server 2003 operating systems. Virtual machines are created and managed through a web-based interface that relies on Internet Information Services (IIS) or through a Windows client application tool called VMRCplus. Features included Linux guest operating system support, Virtual Disk Precompactor, symmetric multiprocessing (SMP), x64 host operating system support, the ability to mount virtual hard drives on the host machine and additional operating systems support, including Windows Vista, and a volume shadow copy writer.
