Regardless of what is happening in Jaunty or others, I find this issue to be a
MAJOR inconsistency in Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 LTS ... I believe it deserves
attention as it is a continuing problem for LTS users ... Having to reinstall
vino every time I want to change a password, or use command line utilities
(shown above) to be a pain, especially for a Desktop application. This is
probably a big issue, especially for primarily Desktop Users, and Could also be
considered a security problem... After doing some looking around and doing
things several times I have found that the base64 program only updates the
encoded password and not the 'mtime' variable in
/.gconf/desktop/gnome/remote_access/%gconf.xml
which is contingent to the encoded password
when entering a new password in the GUI in System>Preferences>Remote Desktop
I would like to see this bug considered for fix ... I believe I have
given enough information for a consideration
Thank You BugTeam,
Hilaire F. Nollette
