[one-users] Sunstone "Error initializing authentication system"

[Ruben S. Montero]

Hi

It is in plain password, try the following to recreate the serveradmin
passwd and sunstone credentials:

1.- oneuser passwd 1 1234 --sha1
2.-  echo "serveradmin:1234" > /var/lib/one/.one/sunstone_auth
3.- sunstone-server start

Cheers

Ruben
