    when the repository is up and running the repository authentication is used

    but during startup phase, or when the repository is down/unavailable the 
authentication built into the web console itself takes place.
    
    you need to change the admin password in the osgi config "Apache Felix OSGi 
Management Console" as well. esp. on production systems or you have a security 
leak if the repository is not available for whatever reason.
