[one-users] Back to the password less oneadmin account

[Robert Schweikert]

Hi,
Still struggling in getting my setup to run. I am slowly coming to the 
conclusion that a password less oneadmin account does not really work.

Dissecting the logs I find that oned at some point tries to scp some 
data to the cloud node, the command issued is

scp -r /var/lib/one/remotes/. 192.168.1.5:/var/tmp/one

(this command shows up in the log file). The result of this command is 
failure with

Connection closed by 192.168.1.5
ExitCode: 255

I proceeded to test this manually

# sudo -u oneadmin scp -r /var/lib/one/remotes/. 192.168.1.5:/var/tmp/one

and was able to reproduce the error. I then created a password for the 
oneadmin user on both machines and issued

# sudo -u oneadmin scp -r /var/lib/one/remotes/. 192.168.1.5:/var/tmp/one

and now things work. This makes me think that it is necessary to allow 
interactive login by the oneadmin user, i.e. have a password assigned. 
Is this correct or am I missing something basic here?

Does anyone have a cloud running that does not allow interactive login 
of the oneadmin user?

Thanks,
Robert
