Hello everyone! I’d be grateful for any help from the community. So far, I’ve been creating Windows templates using tools like WAIK and CloudInstanceManager - https://sourceforge.net/projects/cloudstack/files/Password%20Management%20Scripts/ . CloudInstanceManager was used for managing passwords in the guest OS. It seems this simple utility is no longer supported and was last updated in 2011. Still, everything worked great until now. However, I’ve noticed an issue when using Redundant Virtual Routers. Unlike regular routers where port 8080 is accessible and everything works fine, this port is unavailable on redundant routers. It appears that this port is hardcoded in the utility. Linux templates works fine with these routers via cloudinit. Please share best practices for managing passwords in Windows templates or possible solutions to this issue. I’ve heard about Cloudbase Init, but there’s some info suggesting password management doesn’t work there either—I haven’t tested it myself. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
