Werner Buck updated JCLOUDS-670:
--------------------------------
Description:
Images may return passwords from Nova. I have seen this happen with the
official fedora openstack image as well as other times.
When SSH is used to connect, the password from nova is used, which results in
authentication errors while you might want to use the ssh-agent for
authentication.
To fix this I suggest the "forceNoPassword" option, to force the password to be
empty even if we receive a password from the provider. This option is by
default "false" and can be set in RunScriptOptions or TemplateOptions.
