Description

I think the proposed command to generate password are not very secure, because history file will keep it.

So it will be better if documentation reader try to generate password with a command like this :

-----snip here---
read mypass; echo $mypass | sha512sum
-----snip here---

Thanks for taking the time to get this command right, François. I've fixed it in the docs and in the sample file distributed with Rudder, for 2.3 and 2.4 branches. Docs should be up to date in a few minutes.
