Description haiyang,dong 2013-07-03 09:08:02 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #977479 +++

Description of problem:
Primarily Usability related.

1.  Provide command list in initial text

Currently:

 Password Configuration

 Enter ? for help.

>

We could list the set_admin_password, etc there so users have some idea what to do without running help.

2.  tell the user the current state of SSH passwd auth

Old tool said "Current Status is Enabled/Disabled".  This should do something similar

3.  possibly provide overrides for some commands 
     ( admin to set admin password, root for root password, ssh for ssh, q for quit)

Optional, but might be nicer to have some quick commands that simply wrap the top level commands like:

admin --> set_admin_password
root --> set_root_password
ssh --> set_ssh_password_authentication
q --> quit

Comment 1 haiyang,dong 2013-07-03 09:08:33 UTC

Also missed enhanced function that this RFE bug talked about in rhev-hypervisor6-6.5-20130222.0.auto1707.el6.iso,
so need clone it from upstream bug Component to downstream Component in order to also track it in rhev-h

Comment 7 haiyang,dong 2013-10-27 09:08:29 UTC

Test version:
rhevh-6.5-20131024.1.0.iso
ovirt-node-3.0.1-6.el6.noarch

1.  It provide command list in initial text and also tell the user the current state of SSH passwd auth

[root@dhcp-9-27 admin]# /usr/libexec/ovirt-config-password 


 Password Configuration


Possible commands:
admin  Set the password of the user 'admin'
help   Show this help. [`help --all` to show all available functions]
help   Show this help. [`help --all` to show all available functions]
q      Quit this tool
quit   Quit this tool
root   Set the password of the user 'root'
ssh    Enable or disable the SSH password authentication

[INFO] SSH password authentication is currently enabled

> 

2. It provided overrides for some commands 
     ( admin to set admin password, root for set root password, ssh for set ssh password authentication, q for quit)

so this bug has been fixed, change it into "VERIFIED".

About met duplicated line "help   Show this help. [`help --all` to show all available functions]" help info in console issue, has report Bug 1023700 to track it.
