I've been silly, you are right. It's corrected. However, there will always at least be 2 passwords in the database (at least one for the super-user (root) and one virtual-admin account), so I think it's ok to drop brackets. >> To enhance security in case of a breach, DTC can encrypt all >> admin passwords.

Right! In the mean while, I added yet another thing. Here's my new template, including your corrections: Template: dtc/conf_enforce_adm_encryption Type: boolean Default: true _Description: Enforce DTC admin password(s) encryption? To enhance security in case of a breach, DTC can encrypt all admin passwords. If passwords are encrypted, you cannot see them by clicking on the magnifying glass icon (you will only see the encrypted version of the password), but you can always use the dtcpasswdm shell script to (re)set a password. If this is the first time you are encrypting your passwords and you are upgrading from a previous version of DTC that didn't support password encryption, may issue the following shell script command to encrypt all existing passwords: . mysql --defaults-file=/etc/mysql/debian.cnf -Ddtc --execute="UPDATE admin SET adm_pass=PASSWORD(adm_pass)" . mysql --defaults-file=/etc/mysql/debian.cnf -Ddtc --execute="UPDATE tik_admins SET tikadm_pass=PASSWORD(tikadm_pass)" Thomas Goirand (zigo) P.S: No need to re-attach the templates.pot, I think inline corrections in the email body is enough. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
