hussam Report post Posted July 18, 2012 At the moment, the #change_pass command asks for old password and new password. Since we cannot see the new password while we enter it, there is room for typo. Instead of typing qwertyu as my new password, I may type qwerrtyu instead. We end up everyone once in a while with someone complaining they lost their password while changing it. How about making the command ask for the new password twice? The syntax could be: oldpass newpass newpass Typing it twice removes the chance for accidental typo.
