Hi everyone, We have been using Puppet to manage Windows workstations at work and it has been able to manage most of our machines' configurations smoothly. However, I stumbled upon a problem when trying to reset the password for a local user. The problem is that Puppet is resetting the password every time it runs. Is there a way to avoid that?
The manifest I am writing is very simple, and this problem occurrs even when I try to specify the password in plain-text inside the manifest (actually, from what I read Puppet isn't able to reset Windows passwords using a hash yet). The manifest I am writing looks like this: user { 'Administrator': ensure => 'present', password => 'newpassword' } Do you guys have any idea about what may be causing Puppet to reset the password every time it is executed?
