I bought a subscription today and can’t enter the key. I get a Permission check failed (user != root@pam) (403) error.

Due to security reasons I’ve removed the password for the root user on my server and created a PVE user with Administrator privileges.

How can I enter the code in this case? Only by re-enabling the root account, entering the key, and then disabling the root account again? Is there some command-line fu magic I could use instead?
