Name : accountsdialog
Product : Fedora 13
Version : 0.6
Release : 1.fc13
URL : http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/UserAccountDialog
Summary : An application to view and modify user accounts information
Description :
The AccountsDialog project provides an application to view and modify
user account information that is provided by the AccountsService. It
also lets you configure some aspects of the gdm login screen.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
A large number of fixes following a code review by Miroslav Trmac. For the
dialog: * Fix problems with the handling of locked accounts * Make autologin
settings work * Don't allow changing usernames * Don't use SetIconData,
this call was dropped from the AccountsService api * Use the same username
validation as shadow-utils For the service: - Always require user-
administration privilege when setting a password or changing a username -
Allow changing password mode and password even when the account is locked,
and unlock it as a side-effect - Use /etc/shadow to store account locking and
'set password at next login' information and monitor /etc/shadow for changes
- Set loginuid when runing commands on behalf of a user to generate proper
audit records - Drop SetIconData and make SetIconFile copy the file when
appropriate. As a consequence, the service no longer links against image
libraries. - Various other robustness and error-handling fixes There is
also a number of translation updates.
