Description Hans de Goede 2001-01-22 14:44:04 UTC
Hi,

It's rather easy now to not add a user in the GUI installer,
but my real problem was:

-type root passwd 2x
-enter all user data
-do not press add
-press next
-oops press back

And the user data is gone

Suggestion(s):
-warn about user dating being there which isn't added
-remember the userdata so that it can be added by just pressing back

Fixed internally.

Comment 8 R P Herrold 2001-07-17 18:02:53 UTC
Represented as in Rawhide, and si it whould have appeared in the Beta 2

TUI - 7.2B2 -

Password entry visual fields length STILL not fixed to match Root's in the prior
screen, in the "Add User" screen.

Reopened - escalated to High

-------------------

Come on, guys, this is not that hard.  The print manual 'screenshots' which
caused this to be put on hold six months ago are going to get locked in again --
PLEASE get it commited.

-- Glen -- I ask for  'mustfix' BEFORE the print doco screenshots are locked,
please.

Comment 9 Brent Fox 2001-07-18 16:55:43 UTC
Ok.  We now require that the user password be at least six characters
long...just like the root password.
