Hi Ralf,


i do not know the "user_defaults" tag, i use "security" for that kind of configuration.
You may take a look here:
 http://www.suse.com/~ug/autoyast_doc/CreateProfile.Security.html

In that section you can specify which type of password encryption you want.
Try to set encrypted to false and specify the password in clear text.
Maybe you expect another encryption algorithm.

The following works for me (SLES8-SP3, SLES10, SLES10SP1):

 <security>
  <encryption>md5</encryption>
  <pass_min_days>1</pass_min_days>
  <pass_min_len>6</pass_min_len>
 <security>

 <users config:type="list">
  <user>
      <encrypted config:type="boolean">false</encrypted>
      <user_password>linux</user_password>
      <username>root</username>
    </user>
 </users>

Since SLES10, the tags above are directly below the profile tag, for SLES8 they were enclosed
into the "confgure" tag.

Regards
Oliver
