Do Admin Console logins fail in general with the 'Debian Edu' distro? [Check passwords in /etc/shadow if LDAP absent?] #2831

Description

@holta

@shanti-bhardwa is unable to login to IIAB's Admin Console here, even after we verified that the username (iiab-admin) is part of group iiab-admin and the correct password is being typed in:

http://sprunge.us/ath2Ad?en (output of iiab-diagnostics)

Very strange, as Admin Console logins works on all similar Linux OS's to my knowledge:

  • Hypothetically Admin Console may be using a very different technique to verify username/password ?
  • Is this password-checking routine somehow broken on this pre-release build of Debian Edu 11 / Bullseye ?
    • Or within 'Debian Edu' in general?

A bit more about the 'Debian Edu' version of Debian 11 / Bullseye, that's now being actively promoted: https://blends.debian.org/edu/

e.g. see this download directory where it's one of only 2 choices:
