Hi,
I put this to the test and found that I can logon
without problems. You can indeed remove the 'password
cisco' from the VTY line, as the password that belongs
to the userid will be used. All I can think of is that
something has gone wrong when you entered the password
in the configuration. Try removing and adding the
username line again. Make sure you enter the real
password and leave the number 5 between secret and the
password out:
username cisco privilege 3 secret test
will appear in my config as:
username cisco privilege 3 secret 5
$1$Sfvv$41FgkCM79DzLgspJNHaAU.
If I was to enter the above line directly (including
the 5), the router responds with:
ERROR: The secret you entered is not a valid encrypted
secret.
To enter an UNENCRYPTED secret, do not specify type 5
encryption.
When you properly enter an UNENCRYPTED secret, it will
be encrypted.
It could be that went wrong?? Hope this helps. Good
luck.
