kdisc98,
The issue with not being to upgrade is specific to the evaluation version of the VM, because it contained a single non-upgradable partition. Others who had production size VMs with evaluation KEYS do not have the same problem because those were partitioned properly and could be upgraded. You should backup the pieces (config, server cert WITH private key, remove from domain), install new server with same ip address and add to domain, restore config, import server cert with private key) and you should be good. Again, you will still have the old VM just in case something happens. As of 6.1, the evaluation version will be able to be upgraded without reinstalling.
Sorry for the confusion; we see the pain you are having and hopefully migration will get you through your issues. The service templates in 6.1 also make setting up guest authentication/caching much easier.
