| Description |
|
In an effort to make the config files a little bit more user friendly, I'd like to be able to use "password" instead of "passwd". Alternatively, please update "MariaDB MaxScale Installation Guide" so that it uses "passwd" instead of "password". |

In 2.0.1 `password` is accepted as a synonym for `passwd`, in the configuration sections of services and monitors. If both are provided, a warning is logged and the value of `passwd` is used. The current plan is to deprecate `passwd` in 2.1 and to stop accepting it in 2.2. |
