Administering Ubuntu 16.04 xenial VM in Azure
I have created VM of Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial based on the "xenial-server-cloudimg-amd64-disk1.vhd" download from http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/.
I have followed the MS instructions to build the VM and it is working as expected.
But when I come to log in via PuTTY using SSH on my Windows client I get a Login as: prompt but I have no idea the user id and password.
I have tried ubuntu as the user id with no password (as some google searches indicated) but to no luck.
The MS document I was following has the following line at the end about logging in;-
You should be able to SSH into the VM with the credentials from the source VM.
Any ideas what credentials I should be using?
Any help will be appreciated.
server ssh

Probably you should define user and assign it to the VPS via the control panel of the cloud.
