I would like to change the password of the "crowbar" user on my admin node so that it is not left at a value that's readily known and accessible by anyone with Crowbar experience.
However, when I set it to a different value using "passwd" from the console, it's set right back to its original value by barclamp-crowbar as seen on line 66 of this file: https://github.com/crowbar/barclamp-crowbar/blob/release/pebbles/master/chef/cookbooks/crowbar/recipes/default.rb If I force the password change and comment that portion out of the recipe, then it causes all kinds of problems when I try to allocate and use client nodes. (The first visible effect is that their networks get all screwed up on the first chef-client run, and they lose the connection to the admin node altogether.) The wiki page here was an interesting read: https://github.com/crowbar/crowbar/wiki/Username-and-Password-Customizations But its directions are primarily focused on the client nodes (spawned via the preseed script) and not on the "crowbar" user on the admin node itself. Do other barclamps depend on the password on the Crowbar admin node? Can anyone point me in the right direction?
