[Python-Dev] changing password at SF? (original) (raw)

Didn't see this in the Python-SF-FAQ and SF's docs are pretty mum on the subject... How do I change the password I use when ssh-ing into SF machines? I used the [change password] form from my SF web page, but when I ssh in to the compile farm it still wants my old password. Running the passwd command after logging into a compile farm machine results in "authentication failure" using both my old and new passwords. Is there perhaps some other machine I should login to?

(For those of you not involved with the python.org website, this has immediate practical implications, because it appears one of the python.org machines was broken into.)

Thx,
