Problem

Info

I installed the CIS Server2012R2v2.4.0 Build Kit, specifically MS-L1 and made adjustments as per the documentation before restarting. Now the server says password is incorrect. The password hasn't changed and the same password works on a server that it was cloned from.

Solution

  1. Log-in with your original password, but use the following new Admin user name: CISADMIN

  2. RationalRationale:

This setting pops up in the .inf file contained in C:\\……\Server2012R2v2.4.0\MS-L1{E09AED59-2CD7-4039-8CFE-B2ECD0FB0A02}\DomainSysvol\GPO\Machine\microsoft\windows nt\SecEdit

NewAdministratorName = "CISADMIN"

Note

Are you applying these GPOs to a stand-alone or Cloud-based system? The CIS Build Kits are not specifically intended for those 2 types of systems and can cause errors when being applied to stand-alone or Cloud-based systems.
