[7.900][BUG][FIXED] root password for SSH can not be changed

Hi,

i change the root and loginuser password on my V8 installation, enable the SSH login and can not login with this password.

its not possible to login with root, loginuser or admin via ssh.

i think there must be a bug in password change.

kind regards

Password complexity can be Configured under
Users >> Authentication >> Advanced

It worked obviously with the December (closed beta) version, so i guess we introduced this bug while improving the overall error message system.

Thanks for Reporting.

i Think it will be good to write on the future error message what kind of password complexebility is missing. for example in my case ,,Password don't match the password complexebility. You need: one uppercase character, ....." and behind this error message should be a link to the Users >> Authentication >> Advanced dialog in V8, this will be the best way for usability

sub="confd" name="PW_COMPLEXITY (Password too simple)" user="admin" srcip="" facility="webadmin" client="index.plx" call="set_shell_passwords"

Good catch!
After this kind of failure, the configuration daemon returned the wrong error return code, confusing the WebAdmin.
This is now fixed.
