yo,
Now that are repository and trac site is available online we should be
thinking about security. Your accounts on ThoughtAndMemory with sudo
permissions are also available! This issue isn't critical today, but it
could be soon as we publicize more and more.
Currently, you all can commit to trunk and login to trunk with your
username (sean,mike,eggar,dan,clay,lucy) and the password 'hugin'. You can
and should modify your password, either with me in person or via the
following steps:
ssh to thoughtandmemory.org:
$ ssh sean at thoughtandmemory.org
pasword: password
change account password:
$ passwd
follow instructions
change svn password:
$ htpasswd -m /etc/svn-auth-file sean
follow instructions
change trac password:
$ htpasswd -m /var/www/trac/.htpasswd sean
follow instructions
If you don't want an account on ThoughtAndMemory that's fine, let me know.
We can change passwords together in person (the trac and svn passwords
have nothing to do with having an account).
Note, I would like to not require trac login, but I haven't been able to
turn it off successfully yet. Since we might keep it as a short term
solution, with many more people able to login and add tickets to trac than
modify trunk, the authorization files for trac and svn are different.
Thanks!
Lucy.
