The "change your password" page displays again and my password is not changed. Follow-up Comments ------------------ ------------------------------------------------------- Date: Fri 11/21/2003 at 11:55 By: yeupou "The use of SSL seems less useful if a token that allows accounts to be captured is sent plain-text" No doubt about that, that's why it is planned in the future to always send gpg-crypted password information. But it is no effective right now. ------------------------------------------------------- Date: Fri 11/21/2003 at 11:11 By: Tom_of_GDN Okay, I did that successfully. Thanks :-). I'm suspecting that this has something to do with the GNU/non-GNU separation, if that helps any... The use of SSL seems less useful if a token that allows accounts to be captured is sent plain-text. ------------------------------------------------------- Date: Fri 11/21/2003 at 10:57 By: yeupou [WORKAROUND] Please, do not share your password. Other persons reported this problem but I cannot reproduce it easily. And with the development version, no problem was reported. The current workaround is to use the lost password process. Not logged in, you can use that tool and no problem has been reported with it. ------------------------------------------------------- Date: Fri 11/21/2003 at 10:40 By: Tom_of_GDN Yeah, I'm sure. I've tried it six times now, once in Mozilla. It always just shows me the password changing field again. This happens whether or not I enter the correct password. I'll happily give you my password by mail so you can fiddle with it. ------------------------------------------------------- Date: Fri 11/21/2003 at 09:42 By: yeupou Apparently, there is a problem with the feedback message when you mistype your original password. Are you sure that you typed everything right?
