Great...that worked. Now my plan is that when people request a password, I can just generate a temporary new one and e-mail it to them. I don't like being able to see people's passwords, it could be the password they use everywhere!
Glad that it worked for you.
Just out of curiousity, does this sound like a reasonable thing to do?
Definitely.Incidentally, if you ever need to manually alter/set a password, you can use (from your shell command line):
perl -e "print crypt('new_password', 'S0m3Rand0mStr1ng')"
Where 'new_password' corresponds to the new password you want and the
other string is just a random string of junk. The output of this command
can be put into the password field for a particular user record, and
then that user can use "new_password". Of course, the new password is
visible in the shell's command history, but for a temporary measure it's
sometimes handy, particularly for admin access...
