Version : 0.6
Release : 1.fc13
URL : http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/UserAccountDialog
Summary : D-Bus interfaces for querying and manipulating user account information
Description :
The accountsservice project provides a set of D-Bus interfaces for
querying and manipulating user account information and an implementation
of these interfaces, based on the useradd, usermod and userdel commands.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.
