		Re: PW validation (was: Re: Opinions wanted: article rating harmful?)
(...) Draconian and rather big-parentish. Why can't I take the risk of a sucky password if I so choose? Not that I personally would, mind you. Now, unlike government jackbootedness, we do as consumers have a choice not to use Lugnet... but what (...) (24 years ago, 23-Apr-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

		Re: Member Passwords - how to purge ones you can't remember?
(...) Send me an email tonight and I'll wipe out the lot. (Don't mail me your password.) Because they're stored encrypted, there's no way to wipe any one out selectively unless you know what it is. Then you can set up the one you want to keep (...) (24 years ago, 8-Jan-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

		Re: Upcoming system changes
(...) Todd, just for clarification, are other 3-letter animals that aren't on the list ok for use? I just changed my password to PIG, but I wanted it to be COW because that's what I use for Paypal. If not then I guess I'll just moove that one to PIG (...) (23 years ago, 1-Apr-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

Todd Lehman skrev i meddelandet ... (...) I think that's unwise (to _force_ people to use an acknowledged pw). Two reasons: - one cannot choose a password that is easy to remember --> it will be written down in some easy accessible place. - by (...) (24 years ago, 23-Apr-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

		Re: Enhanced verification (was: Re: What the F.......)

Actually it might even be similar to some of the ideas you have allready mentioned. How about if durring (...) (25 years ago, 14-Dec-99, to lugnet.admin.general)

		Re: New feature: Article rating

Actually, I'd seen someone rating quite a few of your articles highly, and I kinda assumed that it was you :) :) My password is kinda easy to remember as passwords go, containing my initials, a single repeated digit and a naff name that I (...)

		Re: new posts send via e-mail
(...) I only use my at-home machine and I'm always logged in. (I have no idea what my password is) So, do I really need some other confirmation code to simply add a group to my rcv-by-email list? Wait! don't answer that. I'll assume it's a "yes." (...) (24 years ago, 27-Mar-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

		Re: Web interface

I think that's probably more of an advanced "member" feature more than a regular "user" feature because it involves storing config gunk on the server for each person -- and authentication an ID and a password and all that -- and our plan in (...)

		Re: PW validation (was: Re: Opinions wanted: article rating harmful?)
From the last two posts, I think I have arrived at my own conclusion on this matter. Todd wants to protect his hard earned work by issuing complicated passwords that theoretically cannot be hacked. I can't blame Todd for this notion, it seems to (...) (24 years ago, 24-Apr-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

		Re: PW validation (was: Re: Opinions wanted: article rating harmful?)
This is an interesting subject. However, I only know one person who keeps a written note of his password/ATM number etc. The only reason he does this is because he is dyslexic. Despite that, I'm sure that as more and more web services now ask for (...) (24 years ago, 25-Apr-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
