The result is that the user can still login even though the admin has disabled to account. This is a security issue and is present in 12.04, 13.10, and 14.04. This stems from the failure to reset to the password mode away from password_mode_none to password_mode_regular. I have submitted a merge proposal to fix this at https://code.launchpad.net/~echaskes/unity-control-center/fix-user- password-dialog To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-control-center/+bug/1314886/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
