Setting password¶

A bit of background¶

Occasionally you may need to use customer user with password authentication. Right after subscribing, that user has no password thus not allowing that kind of authentication. To use password, you need to set new password for customer user.

Setting up password¶

1. Log-in to EGSE Host

   my-machine$ ssh customer@egse-my-egse.egse.sml.lan
   customer@egse-my-egse:~$
   

2. Set up password

   customer@egse-my-egse:~$ sudo passwd customer
   New password:
   Retype new password:
   passwd: password updated successfully
   

3. Now you can authenticate as customer user using password you’ve set up.
