April 22, 200917 yr Hi guys, i am testing 4.5beta5 and when i creat the root password it takes it and ask me to login. I use root and the password i set, case sensitive and it doesnt work. I powered off and removed the config/passwd file tried it again and the samething happened, is this a bug. Thanks Craig.

That’s nice. I originally had a password that could not be used because it used one of those special characters. Since this restriction is gone I am assuming that anything goes for the password now?

Yes and no Turns out that you can use any character, including Unicode for a password now, EXCEPT that the System Management Utility uses 'Basic' authentication, which doesn't specify how to encode anything other than ISO-8859-1 (aka Latin1). Only browser I think will work correctly is Opera. For example if you try to use this string "Iñtërnâtiônàlizætiøn" as a password, it will be accepted and you will be able to log in via console or telnet, but the System Management Utility will be locked out! So just use the normal characters, numbers, and punctuation it should be all good - normal for US that is
