Both of these need to make a statement that the default username for Windows Remote Desktop user sessions that we ask you set a password for is

mms-user

None of this is clear when attempting to log into the Windows server instances created by cloud manager.

This is an example of the sign up page when a user is provisioning a Windows cloud server.

See above attached image

Bob,

Actually it should refer to the user for Remote Desktop Connections:

To remote desktop into the Windows Server you have provisioned on, use the username "mms-user" with the password you set at configuration time.


Background info:

When you create a new Cloud Server deployment, you are given the choice to use Windows or Linux, if linux the SSH key you provide in our "Settings" section is used to log into the system.

In the case of Windows (which is why I am bringing this up) there needs to be a username and a password entered to access the server via RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) - the password will be the "User Password" (we don't even specify what the username is here either, I've opened a separate ticket for that)

Does this mean that if you intend to provision Windows servers, you have to enter "mms-user":

- here when configuring AWS integration, and

- here when configuring Azure integration?

Also, I see we don't mention Windows Remote Desktop in those steps – we assume SSH. We need to correct that.
