Description Jason E. Rist 2012-03-20 15:59:52 UTC
Description of problem:
The password does not match with CloudEngine - either needs to be password like CloudEngine (admin/password) or CloudEngine needs to switch to what SystemEngine is doing (admin/admin).

Comment 6 Mike McCune 2012-09-13 15:12:01 UTC
another consideration was noted that we should keep them different but obvious:

admin/systemengine
admin/cloudengine

to ensure that the users don't think they are the same user in a database behind the systems.

Comment 7 Aaron Weitekamp 2012-12-03 16:57:47 UTC
This discussion misses an important security concern: we should require an admin to specify password at configuration. Please close per BZ-883037

Comment 9 Bryan Kearney 2014-01-08 21:51:08 UTC
The katello-configure now requires you supply the password. Moving this to POST for MDP3.

Comment 11 Corey Welton 2014-05-08 01:00:28 UTC
Moving to 6.0.4 for QE purposes.

Comment 12 sthirugn@redhat.com 2014-09-03 15:50:35 UTC
Now sat6 generates random passwords with installation.  Also you can change the password during installation:

# katello-installer -v --foreman-admin-password='changeme'

Note: Please reopen this bug if this solution is not acceptable.
