If the customer has bought a VPS with a Windows license, we need to do a few extra steps:

  1. Log in to the physical node the customer has bought a VPS on.
  2. The user's Xen account might not exist, so type something like useradd --home /var/lib/dtc-xen/ttyssh_home/xen'XX -m -s /usr/bin/dtc-xen_userconsole -g xenusers xenXX where XX is the VPS number.
  3. Type ln -s "/usr/share/dtc-xen-hvm/Windows 2008 with SP2.iso" /var/lib/dtc-xen/ttyssh_home/xenXX/ where XX is the VPS number.
