[geeklog-devel] Password Hash Upgrade

[Tom]

In-regards to MSSQL I would do the best you can. With the new topic
features, etc. I have only tested with MYSQL. MSSQL and PGSQL is in there
but untested. Rouslan was our main MSSQL for 1.8.0 but I am not sure if he
will be testing this version. We may have to reach out when the RC is
released to get the community to test.

 

With OAuth a password is created when a user account is created but it is
not used by OAuth itself since OAuth authentication is done by the provider.
I believe the password is still created because Geeklog uses it for the
cookie password and maybe a few other checks. A OAuth user never needs or
knows his Geeklog password. I would think you could just automatically
convert them when upgrading the passwords.

 

I believe OpenID works in a similar way but I have not done much work with
it (and cannot remember).

 

Hope that helps. (I hope to apply the patch tomorrow to test things out)

Sorry about the delay, still dealing with the Mercurial Install errors. Here
is the patch. Help with MSSQL and OAuth/OpenID support would be appreciated.

On a side note, I haven't updated copyright headers for any of the mods yet.
Are we still only updating those with significant changes? Or is the year
updated no matter what and only the authors modified on significant changes.

Thanks,
Vinny

Okay I will wait on tackling the delete oauth account problem until your
work is in the repository. This way I can test your stuff while working on
that problem.

I've merged the password hash upgrades into 1.9.0, this is where I am:

Untested:
Postgres Implementation
OpenID/Alternative Authentication

Unimplemented:
MSSQL Implementation

I keep having problems with install, which has been slowing me down. I'll
post a patch tonight with my current progress so others can take a look.

Hey Vinny,

 

I was wondering if you knew when you could get your password hash upgrade
pushed into the repository?
