If there is anything that we can do to assist in this matter, please let us know.<br /><br />And yes, you are correct about the creation of the admin passwords from MyGSIs. Upon initial creation of the virtual server, we automatically create a root user and password which you can find within your portal. You can then create additional users within the VM itself, however, those will not automatically appear within the password section of the GoGrid portal. Also, if you change your root password, that change will not be reflected within the portal. The Password section of the portal is essentially a "notepad" for you to add additional users/passwords manually for other users within your GoGrid account to see, but changes/adds/deletes do not affect the server itself.<br /><br />But obviously, you are talking about scaling out "clones" of MyGSIs automatically and working with root/passwords within those individual instances.<br /><br />I have not tested what you propose above but I will be sure to share with others in our organization. <br /><br />Here to help if you need it.<br /><br />Best,<br />Michael Sheehan<br />Technology Evangelist for GoGridMichael Sheehanhttp://www.gogrid.comnoreply@blogger.com
