Tools > Share accounts sets the pxe-upload, blancco and clonezilla Samba
passwords. Saving one runs smbpasswd and writes it everywhere it is used:
startnet.cmd in boot.wim (pxe-upload), the served Blancco preferences and
the live config.img (blancco), the iPXE menu's Clonezilla entries
(clonezilla). Refused while a PC is imaging unless forced. Stored 0600 in
UPDATES_DIR/shares/accounts.json, never shown back.
- The stored values are the authority: the playbook only creates the
Samba accounts, seeds the store from site-vars (pxe_upload_password,
blancco_smb_password, clonezilla_smb_password) for accounts it does not
hold, and runs "share_accounts apply" at the end of every run.
- Every startnet save re-pins SHAREPASS, so a restored snapshot cannot
bring an old password back; new menu blocks use %SHAREUSER%/%SHAREPASS%.
- Shop floor unattend Order 4 reads the login from fetch-source.txt;
Invoke-PostPpkg deletes that file once the PPKG is applied.
- Upload-Image.ps1 asks for the password unless -Pass is given.
- pxe_admin_password: the Linux pxe login. Required while the box still
has the shipped "pxe"; set with chpasswd when it differs.
- Blancco site settings now also reach the live config.img (BIOS path).
