… password for containers
This pull request updates the way root account credentials are handled during container creation. Instead of generating and setting a random root password, the scripts now explicitly delete and lock the root password, preventing password-based root login by default. This improves security by ensuring the root account cannot be accessed with a password immediately after container creation.
Security improvements to container creation scripts:
create-container.shandcreate-container-new.shto delete and lock the root password for the root account instead of generating and setting a random password. This change prevents password-based root login by default. [1] [2]
