Hi there,

I found an issue on release 3.3.

I often create user using the command line with

Code:
proxmox-backup-manager user create test@pbs

Then I update the password with

Code:
proxmox-backup-manager user update test@pbs --password 123456

This work on PBS 3.2.7 and the user can login with the credentials.

On 3.3 when creating a user and changing password using the cli with :

Code:
proxmox-backup-manager user update testtest@pbs --password 123456789

Logs returns :

Code:
authentication failure; rhost=[::ffff:192.168.1.1]:2761 user=testtest@pbs msg=invalid credentials

Tested on 3 pbs servers : 2 with 3.3 version and one with 3.2.7

Can someone reproduce ?

Best regards,

Yes, we are looking for the issue. For a workaround you can create the user with its password in the same command e.g.:

Bash:
proxmox-backup-manager user create <foo>@pbs --password <bar>
