Description Bill Peck 2011-10-11 19:28:04 UTC 
Description of problem:

Currently beaker supports a default root password on the systems provisioned, but this setting is stored in a config file on the filesystem.

To make it easier for the admins to change we need to store this in the DB so we can create a web page for them to easily change it.
Comment 1 Bill Peck 2011-10-11 19:29:45 UTC 
Two UI elements are needed for this:

1) Admin interface to allow admins to change the password.

2) User interface to allow users to see the current password, Users must be logged in to see the current password.

I have a sneaking suspicion the password in the config file is ignored anyway and the cobbler setting is used instead...
