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.

You are required to change your password immediately (root enforced)

Patch

Problem was that the code was setting the admin password to be the value of rootpw instead of adminpw.  

Testing:  

Verify it prompts for admin before letting you change on first login

Moving back to Assigned to add the following change:

if rootpw is passed and adminpw is not passed, then set admin passwd to be rootpw

Followup

Testing:

Pass different rootpw and adminpw, ensure that both logins work
pass only rootpw, ensure that login as admin works
pass only adminpw, ensure that login as admin works


Note:  

Resetting password for admin on first login will no set the password for root.  They still will need to be reset individually.

Verified on 6.2-0.14:
1. set adminpw=xxx during install.
2. after install, login with admin.
3. prompt current password first, then can set new password.
