VM Vcneter new install error "Password does not match"
I am installing a new V center appliance and have hit a wall.
I have tried to log in and it asked for "old password" which is just enter.
Then new password I enter, a password that meets the requirement for password security.
It takes that password with out issue. I then when I repeat the password an error stating "Password does not match".
I have reentered this password making sure each key stroke is correct and have gone as far as replacing my keyboard.
No luck any ideas? I normally don't do the installs so I have limited experience with this.
Thanks for any help
