Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ipa-server-2.2.0-16.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. ipa host-add --random $CLIENT Actual results: Generates password with '#\... Expected results: limit the random password characters. Additional info: <atolani> mkosek, Hie, I believe we need to have a smart password policy for random passwords... I got W#W'cu.c\Aa[ as password & I am now unable to escape quote in this password <mkosek> atolani: does 'W#W\'cu.c\Aa[' work? <mkosek> atolani: though you are right, that some of the characters should be omited from password <atolani> mkosek, no then you will have a single quote in the end <atolani> i mean if we allow them & some how escape, we need to school lots of customers... <mkosek> atolani: this should work then: W#W\\\'cu.c\\Aa\[ :-) <mkosek> atolani, shanks: but please create a bug to limit the random password characters, you are right that it is not user-friendly
