Create password for FTP: OE-A images

Since early 2020, images from the OE-Alliance such as OpenATV, OpenVix, will require a password to allow FTP. You will not be able to FTP until you set a password. To set a password, there are two options:

Option 1.

Menu > Setup > Network > Password > Create your password > Green (Save)

Pressing TEXT will open the full keyboard

Option 2.

Set it by command line with applications like Putty/Terminal or similar. OpenWebIf on most images has a built in Terminal, so you wont have to use another application.

Issue following command passwd

You will be prompted to enter the new password. The cursor will not move while you type. Press Return after you have entered your password.

You will then need to retype it to confirm the change.
