# How To Register Accounts
Open up the root web site for the VM:
From within the VM you should use **127.0.0.1** and the static IP of the VM (**192.168.1.100** in this example) from any other machine on your network. You should then see this page:

Input the desired credentials and click **Submit** to save them to the auth database.You can now use those credentials to login from the SWG Client.
If you have pre-existing accounts on the SWG Server before enabling auth then they will be unable to login after it has been enabled. You need to register them in the same way as you do for new accounts. After that is done you will have access to any characters on those accounts once more.
# Login Failures
If you make an unsuccessful login attempt the next attempt will automatically fail. The third attempt will be successful if the correct credentials were provided. If you believe the login is not working at all from the SWG client then you should close the client down and open a fresh one to try again.
