Before the opalstack server acceoted passwords which were 8 char long whereas the new opalstack server GUI requires VPS shell user
password to be 10 char.
You can verify above checking the length
of our VPS shell user passwords before
the server update (it is 8) and after the
server upgrade to that of the latests (it is 10).
Opalstack did change the GUI, did this
requirement for 10 became then ?
If one adds a new VPS user,
and then tries to change the default password
giving 8 char password, the server GUI
does notify it should be 10 char long.
In this situation one has n+1 VPS users
n with 8 char pwd and 1 with 1 char pwd.
If you define this new VPS to termius
app the server does not accept connection.
which is ok.
However, the server also rejects
connection to those VPS users
which have 8 char len ok pwd.
Filezilla works ok if we use only
those VPS with 8 char pwd.
PuTTY works ok if we use only
those VPS with 8 char pwd.
Termius works now ok for all VPS
once we set 10 char pwd to the new VPS.
It was unpleasant surprise
that one could not connect
with termius to any of
existing VPS shell users after having
added a new VPS shell user.
Is the bug in the termius app ?
Does server require 10 char pwd
also for older 8 char pwd VPS
users when termius triescto connect
all VPS users ?
Can I have the older VPS shell users with 8 char
password and upgrade to longer pwd once
migrating ti the new server ?
What do recommend ?
