S-Aggarwal opened a new issue #777: Adding admins through local.ini doesn't encrypt passwords after restart URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/777 ## Expected Behavior If you add a new admin using the `[admins]` section of the `locals.ini` file, the password should get salted and encrypted (using pkbdf2) after restarting CouchDB. ## Current Behavior The password remains in plaintext while a copy is created in the 10-admins.ini file in the local.d directory where the encrypted password is stored. Files after restarting CouchDB: locals.ini ```ini [admins] ;admin = mysecretpassword testadmin = testpass ``` locals.d/10-admins.ini ```ini [admins] testadmin = -pbkdf2-1c9e78dae1afdf034b5777a62a8a7e8a0c8e93fd,56a7565edee375ebb7cb872185ea364c,10 ``` ## Possible Solution Edit `local.ini` with encrypted password as well after parsing it on start-up. ## Your Environment <!--- Include as many relevant details about the environment you experienced the bug in --> * Version used: CouchDB 2.1.0 * Operating System and version (desktop or mobile): Ubuntu 16.04 ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
