RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
# echo 'mypass' | adcli join --stdin-password my.domain.com
adcli: couldn't connect to my.domain.com: Couldn't authenticate as: Administrator.COM: Preauthentication failed
While without --stdin-password option and entering the password manually or in expect script it works.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
adcli-0.7.3-1.el6
--- Additional comment from Stef Walter on 2014-08-14 01:35:24 EDT ---
Could you try this command:
echo -n 'mypass' | adcli join --stdin-password my.domain.com
Note the '-n' argument. Otherwise echo will send a newline as part of the password.

echo -n fixes the problem
I can imagine that you would like to close this bug as it works somehow. This issue exists also on RHEL7 so I will clone this bug as RFE for RHEL7 as it is not intuitive. 'echo "pass" | passwd --stdin user' also works so one could expect that it would work also in adcli.
I would be happy If you fix it also in RHEL6 version of the package.
