Feature Request - Ability to rename built-in Admin

Do we have a timeline for when this long standing request will happen in v18?

Thanks,

  • I suspect this is tricky ...

    Since SFOS/XG is a GUI to a collection of disparate open source softwares, I suspect that having "admin" as the default for all of these is almost a requirement.  Probably that most of these softwares handle uppercase/lowercase differently for the username/password combo, and also the password complexity most certainly has different requirements for each.  Communications between these modules must have its own level of complexity to keep it minimalistically secure ...  Strongswan, Exim and all are all software that do not care whether they are running or not on the same devices.

  • Well, they are renaming root to admin so why is it so difficult to rename it to something else? I imagine they have the same issue as calling eth0 port 1 and it took till v18 to rename a port in the gui.
