Removing password change ability in Psiphon
I downloaded Psiphon, the web based proxy I wrote about yesterday, in order to try it out. One thing I noticed off the bat was that the user(s) have the ability to change their passwords.
You can’t disable that in the Psiphon program so what happens if you want all users to use the same login? If one person changes the password, and doesn’t tell anyone, everyone else will be locked out until you change the password back.
The following steps are how you can prevent users from changing the password in the Windows version:
Browse to C:\Program Files\CitizenLab\psiphon\html. Open the directory pertaining to your language settings (en for this example). Edit all files that begin with login in your editor of choice. Notepad will work fine. Delete or comment out the following line:
Click here to change your password
Move or delete all files that start with reset. Repeat the above steps in the other language directories.If you add languages in the future, you will need to edit the files for that language.
If you’re going through hell, keep going. - Winston Churchill
