Yes, you would get that as the [EMAIL PROTECTED] client is still checking for easy passwords locally. I had disabled this check for my test. It would need to be removed on the client side. I think I'll just do that and add a comment in authentication.conf.example that people need either easy passwords, or save the file in UTF-8 encoding. spaetz _______________________________________________ Tilesathome mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tilesathome
