NetVault login password limitation -
Description
When domain managing with a Windows Server to a NetVault Server on a Pure64 Linux machine, any password over 8 characters will fail at the login attempt and continuously re-prompt to enter a password.
-
Cause
This issue is caused when the NetVault Server is running on a Pure64 version of Linux and the Domain Management Machines on Windows x86_32/64 -
Resolution
WORKAROUND
Below is the list of workarounds in order of recommendation:
a) Use a STRONG password with no more than 8 characters
b) Setup a domain management machine from another Linux Server, or non-Windows machine, giving access to this machine as main domain management hub for various users under Access Control
c) Migrate the NetVault Server to a non Pure64 Linux NetVault Server
STATUS
Waiting for fix in a future release of NetVault Backup.
