OpenSSH Installation

[Peter Cronwright_2]

I have had trouble with OpenSSH not starting on a Windows 2003 server after it was changed to an Active Directory Domain Controller.
I uninstalled OpenSSH, then reinstalled it using cp004878.exe
During the installation it asks for Service Log on as User. I get stuck at this stage, no matter what account I use I get the error "The supplied password is not valid".
Previously the account was the local Administrator but there is no account named 'Administrator' in the Domain.

Did you try the \Administrator as the username? Please give it a try.

There is a document that explains this problem.

(Secure Shell (SSH) in HP Systems Insight Manager)

Here you can find how to install it and I have attached the workaround for running SSH on Server 2003.

I can find no reference to the "Supplied Password is not valid" error when installing OpenSSH in the document links referenced above. Can someone be a little more specific about the resolution to this issue?
Thanks.

This workaround discusses modifying the already existing OpenSSH service. What if the service is not installed? Will I be required to demote the domain controller, install the software, and then re-premote it? This seems fairly silly....
