No, It was never used. Jim never explained WHY he wanted it. I'm fixing the installer now. Steve On 5/10/2017 3:36 PM, Steve Passmore wrote:
Thanks Steve,
I removed the user on the affected machine, Should I expect any problems?

Does anyone know what the user "debian" is used for in the DIAL distro? I had a node compromised where it appears they guessed the password for the user debian. I note on other un-compromised nodes there is a preexisting user "debian" with a password set. The attacker installed a bitcoin miner, storing their files under /var/tmp/.new chrootkit reported it as possibly being the Mumblehard backdoor.
I'd suggest anyone with a DIAL node, at the very least, remove the user "debian"'s password.
passwd -d debian
