Description
I cannot install cep using the documentation. The documentation recommends adding a ceph user, and preparing password-less login.
When I start ceps-deploy install, the .deb that is installed tries to create or modify the cep user, but that's not allowed while the user is logged-in. And the user will always be logged in, because ceph-deploy uses it to login to that machine to install the packages.
When I log in as root to install the packages myself, that goes through, but then ceph-deploy cannot not continue, because the user has been modified, and the passwordless login fails.
There is no clear way out of this situation.
