Another item to add:  The pasword-hash you pasted is not a valid hash string.  The password hash must include the hash algorithm number, the salt, optional rounds (for SHA2 hashes), then the hash string.

 

This is the hash for "vpn123":

$5$WmMWnbdP4tkgqFYF$2K9uRm1mEssDwT6VuEbHDdCvXPWnyjYqOhLrgC22Wu7

 

So you'd use: 

clish -c 'set user admin password-hash $5$WmMWnbdP4tkgqFYF$2K9uRm1mEssDwT6VuEbHDdCvXPWnyjYqOhLrgC22Wu7'

 

NOTE: You MUST use single-quote characters here, NOT double-quotes!

(if i had a <blink> tag, i'd use that, too)
