Hello Tim,

 

I found by looking at the template for the user preferences (default/web_tt2/pref.tt2) that the password

is indeed hidden:

 

    [% UNLESS use_sso %]

         <h4>[%|loc%]Changing your password[%END%]</h4>

 

         <form action=""[%" path_cgi %]" method="post">

             <fieldset>

                 <label for=""newpasswd1">[%|loc%]New" password:[%END%]  </label>

                 <input type="password" name="newpasswd1" id="newpasswd1" size="25" />

                 <label for=""newpasswd2">[%|loc%]Re-enter" your new password:[%END%]  </label>

                 <input type="password" name="newpasswd2" id="newpasswd2" size="25" />

                 <input class="MainMenuLinks" type="submit" name="action_setpasswd" value="[%|loc%]Submit[%END%]" />

             </fieldset>

         </form>

     [% END %]

 

Regardless of the fact that the "local" user is not logged in by SSO.

This looks like a bug to me.

 

 

If think you can try to replace [% UNLESS use_sso  %] with [% IF session.auth == 'classic' || ! use_sso  %].

Untested, no guarantee for outcome.

Hello Tim,

 

 

 

how does your auth.conf looks like (with private / sensitive information redacted ?

     Racke,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

     We provide SSO/LDAP for our university users and a local login option for others. Sympa then saves these local logins

 

     (email address, password, last login date, etc.) in the database. So, they use the ‘First Login?’ option to create a

 

     password with Sympa. A link is mailed to them and they click it to provide a password for their email address. However,

 

     as I mentioned, I don’t see a means for a user to change it; nothing under the ‘My preferences’ menu or elsewhere and

 

     nothing mentioned in the Sympa online documentation. So, I’d like to know if I’m missing it or is the ‘Lost password?’

 

     option a user would choose to reset a local password?

 

 

 

     * *

     Thanks,

          Hi. We are running version 6.2.60 and there doesn’t appear to be an option for users logging in locally to

     Hello Tim,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

     what do you mean with "local logins"? How did your configure the web authentication for your Sympa instance?
