Install of Secure Passwords missing cgi code?
The sub change_password() routines and others is found in secure_lookup.txt but is not included with the secure lookup suite here: http://jpdeni.com/dbman/Mods/secure_lookup.html . The suite includes secure_basic.txt which has some cgi routines, but I'm not sure where to find the right code for change_password. Was the an oversight? Can you put a link to the correct code in the suite, that would make it complete I think. Thanks. -Les

did you get the first one on that page? you must install secure_basic before the others in the list.

Yes but secure_basic.txt is missing the change_password() method. Either include change_password() (and other missing methods) there or provide a link to the file for change_password() in secure_lookup.txt. Thanks for reply. -Les

not sure i understand. you must make the changes specified in secure_basic first. then make the changes specified in the change_password. jpdeni presented them separately so you can choose the options you want.

What is the name of the file where the function lookup_password() implemented? If you say secure_lookup.txt that's good. But secure_lookup.txt is not a file specified in the directions on this page: http://jpdeni.com/dbman/Mods/secure_lookup.html.

I mis-wrote that, I should have written this:


What is the name of the file where the function "sub change_password()" is implemented? If you say secure_lookup.txt that's good. But secure_lookup.txt is not a file provided with files on this page: http://jpdeni.com/dbman/Mods/secure_lookup.html.


secure_lookup.txt was a file used in older builds so some of it's parts like "sub change_password()" are still needed but implied for new builds? Thanks!

it's the change password link - http://jpdeni.com/dbman/Mods/sec_chg_pass.txt
you also need to get one of the html files listed after the change password link

summary: if you want people to change their password you need to install IN ORDER:
1. http://jpdeni.com/dbman/Mods/secure_basic.txt
2. EITHER http://jpdeni.com/dbman/Mods/secure_def_html.txt OR http://jpdeni.com/dbman/Mods/secure_frie_html.txt
3. http://jpdeni.com/dbman/Mods/sec_chg_pass.txt
4. EITHER http://jpdeni.com/dbman/Mods/sec_chg_pass_def.txt OR http://jpdeni.com/dbman/Mods/sec_chg_pass_uf.txt
