I just used yast2 to config NCC server, nothing found abnormal. Any suggestions? (In reply to comment #0)
Zypper's get_password() function used when repositories need to be authorized has two severe limitations:
1) it only reads passwords up to 20 characters 2) it ignores all characters that are not alphanumeric
NCC/SMT uses 32 character passwords.
Why don't you just use getpass()?
