Ubuntu LTS 20.04 issues - Change password on first logon
Hello
We are rolling out RDM for Linux, but we discovered some issues.
One of the issues we've discovered is when we check the box that the user has to change his password on the next logon, the user has no way to sign in.
We expected that the user would receive a prompt asking to change the password.
Is this behavior expected?
Thanks in advanced,
Nick

Hi,
I was able to reproduce this issue internally.
It will require a new version but we should be able to release it by the end of the day or tomorrow morning.

Hello Gabriel and Jonathan
We've noticed another password related issue with our local database users. They can't change their password themselves (when a admin doesn't active the option "User must change password on next logon").
Is it expected that users aren't able to change their password?
We noticed during testing that when we set the policy of our users weaker than the policy of the operating system (linux), RDM prompts that the password doesn't meet the requirements (not an issue, just a remark).
With kind regards,
Nick
Hi Nick,
If a user is able to change its password on Windows, we simply haven't ported that feature back to Linux yet.
As it is an issue for you, I'll open a ticket to support this on RDM Linux.

Hello Jonathan
Thank you. I've received a few complaints of users, so it is indeed a small issue for us.

Hello Nick,
The issue has been fixed internally.
All changes will be effective in the next update (2021.2.1.0)

Hello everyone
We've found an other issue regarding the "User must change password on next logon"-feature.
When the user tries to use middle mouse button click to paste the selected "New password" in the "Confirm password" field, RDM crashes...
According to our Linux users, using the paste selection via middle mouse button doesn't cause a crash in the other two fields.
I've added the stack trace in attachment.
With kind regards,
Nick
