pay attention that "openssl passwd ${ROOT_PASSWORD}" command handles only
passwords up to 8 characters (the extra characters will be truncated and the generated
hash is for the first eight).
If you want to use more than 8 characters in the password, use another password algorithm
instead of the default one. You can see other supported algorithms typing "openssl
help passwd".
For example, command could become
openssl passwd -6 ${ROOT_PASSWORD}
I tried this out on a build that I am working on for which I needed to
add a root password and to create a non-root user with a password.
If I use:
EXTRA_USERS_PARAMS += "usermod -p `openssl passwd -6 ${ROOT_PASSWORD}`
root;”
When I try to login to the device it rejects the password that was
defined as ROOT_PASSWORD. If I remove the “-6” from the openssl command
and rebuild/deploy the image then I can login to the target as expected.
Is there something else that needs to be defined/included in the Yocto
configuration in order for the “-6” option to work?
