[13:54] <esv> you could use the write_files module with the append option set to true, just be aware the append default is false (me thinks)
[13:56]  * esv just realized he's been disconnected for 5+ hours and the answer is a tad late. 
[15:22] <mlohr> Hey folk. I'm sure this question was asked several times, but I can't find anything online... is there a possibility in cloud-init to actually empty the user password, so that he is not asked for a current password when starting passwd?
[15:22] <mlohr> Effect can be achieved with usermod -p "" username
[15:23] <mlohr> Is there any support for that in the chpasswd/user module?
[15:49] <pikaro> hi! if using an EC2 AMI that has vendor-defined cloud-init data, does that always get executed before userdata? I'm using the Gitlab AMI and would like to execute a command before their per-instance scripts. I've noticed that their script runs before my runcmds when scripts-per-instance should come after it according to my knowledge. (to be precise, their script is in
[15:49] <pikaro> /var/lib/cloud/scripts/per-instance/gitlab, that this is the "scripts-per-instance" step from https://git.launchpad.net/cloud-init/tree/config/cloud.cfg.tmpl is my interpretation.)
