Such setting should be in global conf files like <distro>.conf or
local.conf.
Setting root password from a recipe does not have effect.
If you really want to set a root password from recipe, maybe you need to
take a look at base-passwd recipe.
'-P' is an option added to support clear text password. The patch only
applies to shadow-native.
So it does not affect the shadow on target.

Hi all.
I need to set a well know password for root user.
I follow the istruction to do this with
inherit extra_users
EXTRA_USERS_PARAMS = " \
usermod -P secret root; \
"
But it does not work.
I think the problem i for usermod
I sse the man page and the -p parameter needs the output of crypt(3)
function.
While -P parameter (p-uppercase) is not a valid parameter for usermod
Any idea?
Thanks
Mauro
