That is, username from file, password from management interface is not supported.. We could easily make querying from management get higher priority over reading from file/console, but, given that the latest GUI remembers username, there may not be a strong need for such a feature. Anyway, auth-user-pass prompting works like this: if a filename is specified it gets priority over management and console. If the file contains only username, it will fall back to console (or systemd if supported) for prompting for password. If no file is specified and management-query-passwords is specified, then both username and password will be queried from management. In all other cases both username and password is prompted from console (or systemd). Management is never a fallback for reading from file so the windows GUI will not prompt for username or password if if a file is specified. Selva
