GitHub user top-secrett added a comment to the discussion: Rocky Linux 9 and Ubuntu 24.04 template with cloud-init doesn't reset password on next subsequent boots
@hanisirfan @weizhouapache I think I found a solution. Maybe It is not the best, but it works on Ubuntu 22. 1. In ```/etc/cloud/cloud.cfg``` do not touch ```- set_passwords```. 2. Create service based on scipt https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/blob/main/setup/bindir/cloud-set-guest-password.in 2.1. Place it in folder /etc/init.d/ folder with name for example "reset-cloud-password" 2.2. ```chmod +x /etc/init.d/reset-cloud-password``` 2.3. Add lines in script after ```#!/bin/bash``` ``` ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: password # Required-Start: $all # Required-Stop: # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: # Short-Description: your description here ### END INIT INFO ``` And change user in script if it is necessary 2.4. Execute command to create service ```systemctl enable reset-cloud-password``` 2.5. Edit service ```systemctl edit --full reset-cloud-password``` Add lines in the end ``` [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target ``` 2.6. Enable service ```systemctl enable reset-cloud-password``` GitHub link: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/discussions/9690#discussioncomment-10657096 ---- This is an automatically sent email for users@cloudstack.apache.org.
