I have an Azure account with a VM on it. I haven't used it in about 8 months. I tried to connect today but it wont take my creds. Now I'm not entirely sure that I have my password correct, pretty sure but not entirely. So I created a new VM and set the password. Clicked the Connect button on the portal window, tried to connect and was rejected using the password I know to be correct. I have disabled my local machine firewall and antivirus.

1Sounds like you should contact Azure support. – EEAA Jun 01 '14 at 01:44

Crap, so the rdp file that downloads sets the user name to administrator. Google searches reinforced the idea that that was the default and perhaps only username. So I just assumed that was it. However, it turns out that I had my own un.
I further hypothesize that the un stays constant for all vms or because I specified the same dns server when creating the new vm the un carried over.
Clearly user error, but I still want to blame microsoft somehow.
