Password change through HTTPS

Password change through HTTPS
« on: August 12, 2001, 01:03:54 PM »
I would like my users to change their password through HTTPS instead of HTTP.
At present the users can change their passwords using
http://www.xyz.com/e-smith-password. I would like to  change that to
http://HTTPS://www.xyz.com/e-smith-password.
Have anybody tried this method.
Help is appreciated.

Hi Sankar,

       I would like to seek some assistance from you regarding the password change. My system running e-smith 4.1 is giving the following errors when my user doing a password change within the local network:

Software error:
Failed to set Unix password for account nyk.
For help, please send mail to the webmaster (admin@easycall.com.my), giving this error message and the time and date of the error.

    Since you have managed to setup user password change over http, I hope you would assit me. Is the password change that you have implemented works if the access is outside of the local network?

   Appreciate your help

Is anybody has been successfully implemented a password change via web, outside of the local area network for the users. Purpose to do so is that I would like my remote user to change password anytime they like.

Appreciate if any help can be available.
