Hey all,
My objective is to set the root password on the puppet master and then have
root module mine the hash from the shadow file. It seems like it should
work, but I get the error "Parameter password failed: Passwords cannot
include ':' at". I am not sure where it is seeing the ":".
Any ideas?
The manifest looks like this:
class root::linuxroot {
user { 'root':
ensure => 'present',
comment => 'root',
uid => '0',
gid => '0',
home => '/root',
password => generate("/pathtoscript/getlinuxhash.sh"),
shell => '/bin/bash',
}
}
And the getlinuxhash.sh looks like this:
#!/bin/sh
HASHPASS=$(/bin/grep root /etc/shadow | /bin/awk -F ":" '{ print $2 }')
echo "'"$HASHPASS"'"
