Comment 11 for bug 1440263

Dan,

I have tested this script against Ubuntu 14.04 in our cloud and now it works flawlessly, but in addition to the patch provided the file:

/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/cloudinit/config/cc_set_passwords.py

adding the following:

...
from cloudinit import util

from string import letters, digits # pylint: disable=W0402

+# new passwords need to be set at every boot if available
+from cloudinit.settings import PER_ALWAYS
+frequency = PER_ALWAYS

# We are removing certain 'painful' letters/numbers
PW_SET = (letters.translate(None, 'loLOI') +
          digits.translate(None, '01'))
...

Maybe you can add this also to your patch so that the implementation is complete.

If both are applied, the cloud-init scripts work correctly with ACS 4.5.1 at least in our reference cloud, thank you!

Sincerely,
Thomas Moroder
