Please enter password with the systemd-tty-ask-password-agent tool

Hi. I’ve just installed kodi 19 from a fresh image and am trying to set up my vpn via command line, using a set of instructions I created based on your support a while ago (Eth0 not connected- vpn setup issue? - #69 by dillthedog). Setting up from scratch has always worked without problem, but I’ve come across this message using the latest version…

please enter password with the systemd-tty-ask-password-agent tool

After some googling, I tried entering sudo systemd-tty-ask-password-agent then enterered my username, did the same again and entered my password, then rebooted. When booting kodi I can see it’s still asking for authorisation and won’t connect to the vpn. Hopefully this is an easy fix, thanks.

Apologies, I’m an idiot! I missed a line in the auth-user-pass login.txt file. All working now.
