      Hi,
      I have a xen orchestra a couple of xcp-ng hosts.
      I would like to know if it's possible to connect the xen-orchestra to the hosts without supplying the root password ? To do it "passwordless", just like a ssh-copy-id would do.

      I tried to not enter a password in the UI, but it won't let me.

      Thank you.

      Carl

        Hi,

        XO isn't using SSH but XAPI. XAPI is using PAM to sync with the root password.

          I see, thank you, I understand now.

          Olivier, since I know you are really invested in this project and you have helped me twice already, can I kindly suggest that having a little part covering the firewall integration of the xcp-ng in the guides.

          I added configurations to /etc/sysconfig/iptables to hide the xapi/443 and other ports from all other ip than my xcp-ng and my orchestra. For people that will want to have xcp-ng servers at OVH or other cloud providers, it could be useful.

          Thank you!

          Carl
