No JIT password prompt #5

Open dcunited08 opened 10 years ago

I believe it is a security issue to have no prompt to the user if they don't include a password in their config file.

Hi @dcunited08 , Indeed, it a security issue. I will try to resolve it in the next releases. Thank you for your feedback !

Moreover, when I left the password equal to empty string (which is the initial value suggested by the wizzard), then the error I got was really confusing: "Cannot establish connection: path must be a string".

One more thing: the defaults seems to work in such a way that the include file itself gets synchronized to the server. This is even more serious security issue cause now I shared my password with coworkers :)
