SME Server talk:Documentation:Administration Manual:Chapter5

Regarding admin (and other) password: Should we extend the current varning box with info about what caracters are allowed in passwords? According to bug 2006 that would be from decimal 33 to 126 in the ASCII table.

At the end of this page, we should show the "apply changes" screen and explain that the next step is to login as ADMIN not ROOT to further configure users, ibay shares, etc. This should be re-iterated at the beginning of Chapter 6. --Uniqsys 18:56, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

It has been in the manual already even highlighted as a tip box in chapter 6. Do we really need to show the apply screen? Wouldn't it be obvious enough? — Cactus (talk | contribs)  08:10, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Change line 1398 "if ($choice =~ /^[-,0-9]+$/)"

To "if ($choice =~ /^[-,\#\*0-9]+$/)"

Which allows '#' and '*' in the Dialup phone number
