[one-users] Opennebula template Push root password.

[Leszek Master]

I'm trying to do this on ubuntu, i did what you said i've created file
names init.sh upload it to Files and named there init.sh too. Next i
applied it to template ($FILE[IMAGE_ID=10]) added ROOT_PASSWORD base 64
encoded and it doesn't work :(

My init.sh:

#!/bin/bash
usermod -p "$ROOT_PASSWORD" root

But it didn't work.
