Currently, I can't see any way to provide a slave password to the sentinel. This forces to have the same password for the master and for the slave as sentinel currently has only one auth option:

sentinel auth-pass <master-group-name> <pass>

So having master that has one requirepass: "pass1" and slave that has different requirepass: "pass2", results in sentinel not able to connect to slave.

Should I always provide the same password for slaves and master when using sentinel?

Hello @h0tw4t3r , sorry for the delay, currently it is not possible for setting up different passwords for replicas and master, however it is possible to mix a non-password required redis instance(master or slaves) with the password protected one, as long as the password is same for all instances which require password. Thank you!
