[Bug 374787] New: password dialog weirdness
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=374787 Summary: password dialog weirdness Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: yast2-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: snwint@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- [seen during installation in the 'create new user' dialog] If you leave that dialog and then go back to it, the password field is always pre-filled with five '*'s. I can understand that it did not store the unencrypted password, but it even lets you edit that password and I've no idea what the new password is! IMO it should either remember the password and prefill the input field correctly or not at all. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Big question: what is the password now?
Ah, this question: good one. If you really left the dialog, than the current would be *****1. It is strange? Yes, but imho the usage (appending 1 to the end) is also strange. (In reply to comment #0 from Steffen Winterfeldt)
IMO it should either remember the password and prefill the input field correctly or not at all.
I think that something should be prefiled, so user knows there is something set. I could change it to fill the real password (yes, it is remembered). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
