[BBS] BBS - Reset sysop password blasts other passwords #541

Closed fletcherm closed 2 years ago

fletcherm commented 2 years ago

Module Information

Reset sysop password messes up user passwords

User passwords don't work after resetting the sysop password

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Create a user bob with password bobob
  2. Logon with the above credentials and confirm it works.
  3. Shutdown the server
  4. Run mbbsemu with the -DBRESET parameter and set a new sysop password (I used sysop)
  5. Bootup the server
  6. Try to login again with bob and bobob. No dice.

Expected behavior

User login and password should continue working after a sysop password reset.

Closing this as I realize I'm a moron and the flag is literally named -DBRESET, despite only every using it for sysop pw resets. Will make a new item for that.
