[Bug 625013] Re: Username and password set to "(null)" instead of left empty

[JC Hulce]

This bug affects Ubuntu 10.10, Maverick Meerkat. Maverick has reached end-of-life and is no longer supported, so I am closing the bugtask for Maverick. Please upgrade to a newer version of Ubuntu. 
More information here: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2012-April/000158.html

Title:
  Username and password set to "(null)" instead of left empty

Status in “partman-iscsi” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “partman-iscsi” source package in Maverick:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: partman-iscsi

  On a recent Maverick install to iscsi root, the file
  /etc/iscsi.initramfs contained these four lines at the end:

  ISCSI_USERNAME="(null)"
  ISCSI_PASSWORD="(null)"
  ISCSI_IN_USERNAME="(null)"
  ISCSI_IN_PASSWORD="(null)"

  This seems to have come from partman-iscsi's finish.d/iscsi_settings script.  
  This prevents proper login and boot.  The values came from the kernel:

  $ cd /sys/devices/platform/host2/session1/iscsi_session/session1
  $ sudo grep . {username,password}{,_in}
  username:(null)
  username_in:(null)
  password:(null)
  password_in:(null)
