ws.webpasswd 2.2.0

Usage

Set up your webserver to run the CGI script. Here’s an example apache configuration snippet:

ScriptAlias /passwd /path/to/venv/bin/webpasswd-cgi

As changing the password for another user requires root access, you also need to setup passwordless sudo execution for the webpasswd-change helper. Add a rule like this, e.g. in /etc/sudoers.d/webpasswd:

www-data ALL=NOPASSWD:/path/to/venv/bin/webpasswd-change

(www-data means the user the webserver executing the CGI script runs as.)

You can pass the following environment variables to the CGI script:

WEBPASSWD_CHANGE:

Path to webpasswd-change helper. If unset, assumes a virtualenv installation (so it’s located next to webpasswd-cgi)

WEBPASSWD_STYLESHEET:

URL to a stylesheet to link to instead of using the built-in styles

Running tests

You’ll need to add a user account webpasswd, and interactively during the test run reset its password as instructed.
