34 <PRE>so something like..
35
36 /ns sendpass Craig
37
38 &quot;You have recieved this e-mail because X!<A HREF="http://www.ircservices.za.net/mailman/listinfo/ircservices-coding">Y at Z</A> has requesed a sendpass on your nickname, if this is you, your password will be changed
39 by performing the following command on IRC: /ns setpass Craig &lt;AUTHCODE&gt; &lt;NEWPASS&gt;
40
41 If you did not request the sendpass, your current password will remain in tact, and you can dis-regard this e-mail&quot;
42
43 Then if needed on IRC..
44
45 /ns setpass Craig &lt;AUTHCODE&gt; &lt;NEWPASS&gt;
46
47 This means if someone attempted to miliciously use the command, the users 'current' password would still work, and its of no inconvieniance.

65 &gt;<i>Or why not just email some kind of random unique cookie which is then msg'd
66 </I>&gt;<i>to nickserv to reset and obtain the new password. Kinda like the auth
67 </I>&gt;<i>system for authorising new registrations...
68 </I>&gt;<i>
69 </I>&gt;<i>That'll also take care of the insecure nature of emailing passwords. More
70 </I>&gt;<i>and more ircds are supporting ssl client connections. Getting the new
71 </I>&gt;<i>password over irc is favourable in that regard.

80 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> I'm looking forward to this module. It is what kept us from switching to
81 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> encrypted passwords.
82 </I>&gt;&gt;<i>
83 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> Here's some ideas on the abuse problem:
84 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> * Only allow usage of the command from hosts that are in the nickname's
85 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> accesslist
86 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> * Send the nick!<A HREF="http://www.ircservices.za.net/mailman/listinfo/ircservices-coding">user at host</A> of the user that issued the command in the E-mail
87 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> (it won't prevent abuse, but at least you'll know who's been playing around)
88 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> * Give a notice to services operators/admins each time the command is issued
89 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> * Limit the amount of times the command can be used successively
90 </I>&gt;&gt;<i>
91 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> Hope this helps.
92 </I>&gt;&gt;<i>
93 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> Grtz,

102 </I>&gt;&gt;<i>
103 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; I've been working on a module that allows use of sendpass whilst using
104 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> encrypted passwords (i'll contribute the source to Andy when complete for
105 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> inclusion in services), it will work by changing the users password, and
106 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> mailing them that.. but i cant find around other users using it miliciously
107 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> to aggrovate others..
108 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;
109 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; anyone got any idea on how this can be resolved? thanks :)
