From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1) Description of problem: When you run up2date-config and enter your proxy information, the password is shown in clear text on the configuration screen. This would be fine with me if I were our only administrator, but other people can gain access to my password this way. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): up2date-4.0.1-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.run up2date-config 2.enter proxy password 3.view list of settings and see your password Actual Results: My password is displayed under 26. proxyPassword Expected Results: It should show asterisks or something. Additional info: I've reproduced this error on three machines. I saw the bugzilla report about this (#6953), but it was closed and it was release 6.1.
