I would like to setup a MAAS for OpenStack with Ubuntu 12.04.

Everything workes great:

marcel@ubuntu20:~$ juju status
2012-07-09 13:00:02,559 INFO Connecting to environment...
The authenticity of host 'node1 (10.110.11.71)' can't be established.
ECDSA key fingerprint is 29:42:2c:7a:ef:52:d4:f8:63:51:d8:a1:1e:a9:16:0e.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
2012-07-09 13:00:05,883 ERROR Invalid SSH key

I read some more people have this issu not sure if it is a BUG but I couldn't find a working solution…

I read this posting with the same issue.

I added a root user to this file that I can access the nodes:

/var/lib/cobbler/kickstarts/maas.preseed:

Now I have access to the nodes and I created a user ubuntu with a password and copied the keys.

Now it lookes a little bit better I thought.

marcel@ubuntu20:~$ juju status

A closer look showes me this issues:
