Q: How can I create an encrypted password for use in the config.xml file?

The password can be created using

kiwi --createpassword

on the command line. This process is interactive and you will be prompted to enter a password.

The output is an encrypted string for the plain text password you entered. You can cut and paste this string into the config.xml file as the value for the "pwd" attribute of the "user" element.
