Linux BMR Boot-Media - Max. PW length?

Post by mdiver »

What is the actual maximum for the NTLM password used to connect to a VBR server from within booted linux recovery media?
(https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/agent ... tml?ver=60)
While typing it seems to be 19. I have customers with more characters in the PW policy.

Thanks,
Mike

Hello,

Does the system generate an error if you type more than 19 characters?

No, it just doesn't log me in with a pw longer than 19 (NTLM authentication error).
The field shown by the boot media looks as if after 19 it doesn't accept more chars.

Thanks,
Mike

Hello,

That sounds like a technical issue, as there is no specified maximum length for the NTLM password used to connect to a VBR server from within booted Linux recovery media. Please provide a support case ID for this issue, as requested when you click New Topic.

Without case number, the topic will eventually be deleted by moderators.
