From 292e9a631ebec94138bd4f3b1f5a1a9faea9cb38 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: bwarsaw <> Date: Thu, 30 Dec 2004 20:49:31 +0000 Subject: From the NEWS file: - Added the ability for Mailman generated passwords (both member and list admin) to be more cryptographically secure. See new configuration variables USER_FRIENDLY_PASSWORDS, MEMBER_PASSWORD_LENGTH, and ADMIN_PASSWORD_LENGTH. Also added a new bin/withlist script called reset_pw which can be used to reset all member passwords. Passwords generated by Mailman are now 8 characters by default for members, and 10 characters for list administrators. --- bin/reset_pw | 86 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 86 insertions(+) create mode 100644 bin/reset_pw (limited to 'bin/reset_pw') diff --git a/bin/reset_pw b/bin/reset_pw new file mode 100644 index 00000000..d7e5527a --- /dev/null +++ b/bin/reset_pw @@ -0,0 +1,86 @@ +#! @PYTHON@ +# +# Copyright (C) 2004 by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. +# +# This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or +# modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License +# as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 +# of the License, or (at your option) any later version. +# +# This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, +# but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of +# MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
