If so, what happens when you run it? When I run either this modified script or the built-in one, I was always getting a random password. I need a fixed one. The 'trick' seems two-fold: 1) The script really does need to be in the /mailman/bin/ folder. 2) The script seems to manage to call the built-in reset_pw script that comes with the installation. That script always chooses a random password. So, I just saved that as reset_pw_orig.py, used a modified version as the 'real' reset_pw, and all was well. Sorry for the long struggle. I'm _not_ a python user, and get a bit tangled up in a syntax I almost (but not quite) understand. I'm sure this seems like a piece of cake to the rest of you. -- Drew ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
