    Hi,

    Just installed Windows Home Server 2011 (Dutch version).

    Found a bug when I wanted to create a **.homeserver.com remote web access domain with the wizard.

    My live account had a quote-sign in the password and there was no way to login correctly. After I changed my password to one without 'special'-characters the wizard logged in without any problems and created the certificate and all.

    Anybody else had problems with this?

    I'm almost sure I read this before somewhere, that you can use other special characters but not a ", but I can't find the reference now.

    This is well known problem (any special character causes a problem) and Microsoft has been made aware.

    Any location on the web where we can find the things where Microsoft is aware of (related to Windows Home Server 2011)?

    You need to go to Microsoft Connect (connect.microsoft.com) and log in with your Windows Live Account. You can then access the WHS 2011 section where bugs are reported.

    It is in the Release Notes for Windows Home Server 2011:
    See "Using a Windows Live ID that contains special characters to configure a third level domain on .homeserver.com fails to authenticate"

    Quote:
    "If you use a Windows Live ID that contains special characters in the password (such as ‘”/\%$&), you may be unable to authenticate to set up your domain name. "

    No home server like Home Server
