When testing API Endpoints of applications running on BTP, it can be necessary to authenticate using the right S-User credentials. In such a scenario, the Universal ID password will not help.
Universal ID password can be changed via https://accounts.sap.com (will forward to the Standard SAP ID Service)
A specific S-User password can be changed via https://account.sap.com (will forward to Manage my Account, where you see the different S-User and P-User, linked to your Universal ID)

“Bringt nicht nur nichts, ist kontraproduktiv.” 🙂
Generate key, copy key to server and finally ssh passwordless into your server.
ssh-kegen -t rsa
ssh-copy-id root@ip
ssh root@ip
View your generated key with:
cat /home/user/.ssh/id_rsa #local
cat /home/user/.ssh/authorized_keys #server
To disable password authentication permanently you have to edit the ssh config. Be sure to first backup before editing. Now just set PasswordAuthentication to “no” in your config and restart the ssh daemon.
cp /etc/ssh/sshd_config /etc/ssh/sshd_config_bak
nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config
service ssh restart
