Description

Version:
2.0-RC1 (amd64)

Goal:
Have user accounts that only work for IPSec VPN access. And allow the user to change their own password.

Setup:
IPSec mobile client VPN is working for admins with local user accounts, using PSK + Xuath. I created a test user who is only a member of the "vpnusers" group. The vpnusers group has Shell Access to work around bug 1202, and User Manager privileges that work as described in bug 319.

Issue:
When a user logs into the web interface they are given the "System: User Password" that allows them to change their password. When a user sets their password on that page it changes their WebUI password, but not their shell and VPN password. If an admin manipulates the account, e.g., disabling then enabling the account, the passwords are synced to what the user set.

Expected Behavior:
When a user changes their password I expect it to change all their passwords.
