-------------------------------------
Summary: Can't use Client from a script when passwords are
encrypted
Key: KARAF-4880
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-4880
Project: Karaf
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 4.0.7
Reporter: Paul McCulloch
Without the old -p option there is no straightforward way to use the client to
connect to a karaf using encrypted password authentication.
With clear text passwords client reads the passwords from users.properties.
My use case is an (izpack) installer which uses the client to add features &
apply configurations. The installer prompts the user for admin account details
& should pass these to the client.
Using SSH keys is problematic I believe. I would need the user (or the
installer) to keep a copy of the key generated on initial installation for use
in subsequent upgrades.
My installer is cross platform, so relying on open SSH etc. as a workaround is
problematic.
The -p option was removed from client as part of KARAF-1475
