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.

Fixed In Version: wsmancli-2.6.0-10.el8_6
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
When connecting to a service that requires authentication, the wsmancli command (command line interface for managing systems using Web Services Management protocol) returned an error message immediately after receiving an HTTP 401 Unauthorized response (for example, because of incomplete credentials). The "Authentication failed, please retry" message was displayed, and the user was prompted for both the username, even if had been already provided, and the password. The handling of authentication was improved to better conform to RFC 2616. No error message is displayed on first authentication attempt. The command requires to input only credentials that were not provided already. Also the error message is printed only when the credentials were provided and authentication failed.
