    Hi,

    Currently I'm testing ISConfig for using in our company.
    One of the problems I have is to update users credentials:
    When I change the password or I change the user to Administrator this information
    is not updated in ISPConfig.
    Am I doing something wrong?

    Version = 2.2.23

    Thx,
    P.

    Where do you change thsi information? In ISPConfig or do you try to change it manually in the sql database?

    Inside ISPConfig.

    Did you install your server exactly as described in the perfect setup guide for your linux distribution?

    Yes, I did. It's a debian etch starting from "The Perfect Setup - Debian Etch".
    In the MySQL table I see the change appear, but these are never updated in ISPConfig: the new password stays in the table and is never wriiten into /etc/shadow; making a user Administrator does not function.

    Please run:

    /etc/init.d/ispconfig_server restart

    Then wait a few minutes and check again if the changes had been written.

    I'm sorry but that does not help, however a restart of the server was successful.

    I have a ISP user for a site;
    I change the password;
    In the table isp_isp_user the password field is filled with the new encrypted password and the status field is filled with the letter 'u' (update I guess)
    These changes are not written into /etc/passwd. The timestamp does not change;

    When I delete another user, the updated password for the first user is stored in /etc/shadow and the sql table is updated.
