Am I correct in assuming that in order to fix this, I would have to
go to directory
/etc/mailman/en
and modify these HTML files that contain the string password:
admlogin.htmlcontains FORM METHOD=POST ACTION=%(path)s
listinfo.htmlcontains MM-Roster-Form-Start
options.html contains MM-Form-Start
and the place where the two Form-Start strings are defined,
In ther long run, is the change worth making? Thanks.
It is more complex than that, but do you want to do it? If I understand
correctly, the consequences will be that at least simple, web browser
password managers will not remember these passwords for their users.
There is a downside to not disabling browser password management in
that a user at a public work station can allow a browser to remember a
password and this is bad, but whether this is something worth
disabling all password management for is something you need to
consider.
If you want to do it, the places where Mailman accepts passwords are:
- the admin and admindb login pages which are built from the
admlogin.html template
- the private archive login page which is built from the private.html
template
- the user options login page which is hard coded in the loginpage()
function in Mailman/Cgi/options.py
- the roster request form on the listinfo page built using the
MM-Roster-Form-Start tag on the listinfo.html template.
- the subscribe form on the listinfo page built using the
MM-Subscribe-Form-Start tag on the listinfo.html template.
- the password change fields which are part of the entire, multi-button
form on the user options page using the MM-Form-Start tag.
You do not edit templates in the various templates/en/, etc.
directories. If you want to make site wide edited templates, you put
them in directories named templates/site/en/, etc. See the FAQ at
http://wiki.list.org/x/jYA9.
All the various MM-*Form-Start tags are ultimately processed by the
FormatFormStart() method defined in Mailman/HTMLFormatter.py
