Windows Server 2008 June 2007 CTP First Login

One major change of the Windows Server 2008 Jun CTP (W2k8JunCTP) is the mandatory requirement to supply a strong password prior to login to a typical installation of W2k8JunCTP. This is with the local Administrator account (default blank password but no prompt for user name).

You must first click on the big Other User button and specify Administrator and a blank password at the next screen (below) before you are prompted to change the password.
