Password doesn't work.

After following these usage instructions for RDP with the first 8 digits of my instance id as a password it didn't work at all. Looking for a different solution in Arara Solutions I notice that guides folder is empty (http://arara.solutions/guides).

This the only message that I get through GUI.

Connecting to sesman IP 127.0.0.1 port 3350
sesman connect ok
sending login info to session manager, please wait...
login failed for display 0

Hi, I'm sorry that you were unable to log in, upon reviewing the instructions I notice it was indeed incorrect, it has been fixed now. Please find below the correct instructions: The user name is ubuntu and the password is the first 8 characters of the Instance Id after the dash (Ex: for the instance id i-1a2b3c4d5e6f7g8h9 , the password would be 1a2b3c4d) If you still having issues to connect, please contact us at http://arara.solutions/support/
