Terminal & SSH Addon Problem

Installation Home Assistant OS
1

Trying to use ‘ha authentication reset’ to change a user’s password on Terminal & SSH community addon. But it always gives this:

$ ha authentication reset --username "user" --password "newpassword"
 
ERRO[0000] Unexpected server response                   
this command is limited due to security reasons, and will only work on some locations. 
For example, the Operating System terminal.
Unexpected server response

Since i am using hassio (Docker) i simply have no idea to ssh into docker homeassistant container. Is there a way to disable this limitation on SSH addon?

You change the password in the addon configuration:

I think he’s trying to change a Home Assistant user’s password, not the SSH / Terminal password.

Yeah reading it again you’re probably right.

Actually i am trying to change a family user’s Home Assistant User password since he forgot his password; these family members are not admin users btw. In the end i deleted the user from config-Users and recreated it with the same name so i can assign a new password.

But the HA Shell login as “From the operating terminal” problem still exists since i can only login from SSH addon…

I have to do the same.
How to change other user’s password?

I couldn’t handled it, so i deleted and recreated the same username…
