| Krikke | so how do I set the password for a user? | 09:46 |
|---|---|---|
| Krikke | seems whatever options I use I can't login | 09:46 |
| Krikke | from the tty | 09:46 |
| Krikke | I've managed to get ssh login working with ssh keys but if something goes wrong I can't see what's happening on the host | 09:47 |
| Krikke | like if there's something wrong in the configuration and I can't login with anything | 09:47 |
| Krikke | settings lock_passwd: false and passwd: foobar does nothing | 09:47 |
| Krikke | let me correct that, plaing_text_passwd: foobar | 09:48 |
| Krikke | plain | 09:48 |
| Krikke | oh hell, I had used plain_text_password ... nevermind | 09:49 |
| Krikke | is there some tool to validate the config? | 09:50 |
| Krikke | ugh, didn't work with it correctly written either | 09:52 |
| Krikke | the weird thing is, if I set a passwd sometimes it starts asking for it at ssh login | 10:05 |
| Krikke | why can't systems just work | 10:05 |
| Krikke | if I go in with sudo as root on the system, set the passwd then I can login from tty1 | 10:10 |
| Krikke | I even tried copy pasting the pw hash from /etc/shadow but nothing | 10:13 |
| Krikke | doing the manual thing with sudo just beats the purpose of this tool | 10:13 |
| Krikke | not being able to login without ssh makes debuggin hell | 10:28 |
| Krikke | maybe I'm using the tool for something it's not supposed to do | 11:23 |
| Krikke | but feels like this is meant to deploy an image and then you ssh in and apply configuration after that with some other tools | 11:23 |
| meena | Krikke, what do your log files say? | 11:42 |
| meena | anyway, i apply the main part of my configuration with puppet, but not ssh stuff | 11:44 |
| Krikke | the point is, I can't be arsed to mount the filesystem to see the log files, I am recreating it every time | 11:45 |
| Krikke | if I can't log in, what use are the log files to me? | 11:45 |
| Krikke | it's a really cumbersome way to debug | 11:47 |
| meena | if i can't see log files, it's really hard to guess what the issue may be | 12:37 |
| Krikke | that's my point | 12:38 |
| Krikke | I can't access them | 12:38 |
| Krikke | easily | 12:40 |
| meena | i thought you got ssh access? | 12:42 |
| Krikke | yeah sometimes | 12:42 |
| Krikke | if I'm lucky to get a config that works | 12:42 |
| Krikke | I can't view logs from a volume that has been destroyed | 12:43 |
| Krikke | so I can only get logs from last boot | 12:43 |
| Krikke | and if I can't ssh in then that goes out of the window | 12:43 |
| meena | Krikke, so what's your config look like, exactly? | 13:24 |
