Jean-Baptiste Onofré resolved KARAF-5217.
-----------------------------------------
    Resolution: Not A Problem

IMHO, it works as expected: encryption is one way, so the client can get the password if encrypted and so it prompts for the password.
An alternative is to use authentication by certificate instead of username/password.

> When using the bin\client.bat without specifying a user, org.apache.karaf.client.ClientConfig determines username + password by parsing the etc\users.properties and using the first user + pw.
> When I set "encryption.enabled = false" in org.apache.karaf.jaas.cfg, my users.properties looks like this:
> {code}
> karafuser = anypw,admin
> {code}
> it works and the shell opens.
> When I set "encryption.enabled = true" in org.apache.karaf.jaas.cfg, my users.properties looks like this:
