yabi-fe Password changing using DB auth model #39

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
At present it is not possible to change passwords using the DB auth model. The 
user will change their password in the frontend but this will have no effect on 
the admin db.

Maybe we could look at merging the FE db back into the Admin db, especially if 
we end up removing the Appliance business. Then when a user changes their 
password in the frontend it will flow on to the admin as they are both using 
the same Django Auth table.

This is now fixed in head and will be in the next release. This change allows 
users to change their password in the FE and have that change propogate to the 
admin, including re-encrypting credentials if necessary. This works for both 
ModelBackend and LDAPModelBackend.

It does not mean that you can change a user's password in Admin and have that 
change flow out to other places.
