[libosinfo PATCH 2/2] tools, install-script: Do not accept user & admin password via --config

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As passing user & admin password via command line is a low impact CVE,
let's error out when it's done and advertise the users to use
--config-file instead.
