Re: [BackupPC-users] Rsyncd user and password field gets confused as a login form
Actually the issue is that the browser saves from data from rsyncd user and pass fields as page login information. Is this a bug?

Browsers will pre-populate credentials with what they have cached for the same authentication domain (Apache''s 'AuthName' setting), if you previously said to save it. I don't understand why you would have used those credentials in that context or saved them, though. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com -- Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.

I accidentally saved the credentials for rsync, isn't it better to turn off the save password dialog for rsync credentials?

That part is done by the client browser - which should also have a way to clear saved passwords. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com -- Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
