[Mailman-Users] Unknown password on new list...
I just set up a new list, and must have fat fingered the password. How can I change it since I cannot log into the GUI? I see 'mmsitepass', but it changes a master password for all lists. I don't want that. I only want to change for ONE specific list. Also, this seems kind of short-sighted that it takes only one password on the command line and hides the typing. Why doesn't mailman ask for a confirmation of the password, and keep re-prompting for a new one if they do not match? -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showamp;file=faq01.027.htp
Re: [Mailman-Users] Unknown password on new list...
Just to clarify, I'm not completely retarded. Yes, an email is sent, however it says: Your mailing list password is: cand^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hvegas And obviously, when I try to type that into the GUI, it fails. I've also tried the following combinations with no luck: cand candvegas vegas -Original Message- From: Daevid Vincent [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 09, 2006 5:05 PM To: 'Mailman Users' Subject: Unknown password on new list...

You can use the master site password to log in the admin page and change the list password. If you can not use GUI for any other reason, then use bin/withlist to change the password with a little trick like this: % bin/withlist test Loading list test (unlocked) The variable `m' is the mm-test MailList instance import sha p = 'newpass' cp = sha.new(p).hexdigest() m.Lock() m.password = cp m.Save() m.Unlock() Finalizing % I see 'mmsitepass', but it changes a master password for all lists. I don't want that. I only want to change for ONE specific list. Also, this seems kind of short-sighted that it takes only one password on the command line and hides the typing.
