Hi,

It is a nice opton to resend the welcome mail to the customer BUT the password is always: * irretrievable *
Is it possible to show this in the resend mail?

BTW, the default skin, is that allways updating with new versions?

Hello,

The password is irretrievable as they are one way encrypted. This is a good thing (for security), unless you've lost it :)

DirectAdmin Skins (default and power_user) are always updated with updates.

A lost password feature like the way the forums work would be a good idea, if secure. I deal with lost passwords all the time, a real pain sometimes.

There's no way to retrieve a lost password; linux/unix doesn't save it.

Perhaps DA could come up with a method of creating a new password and sending it to the site owner email address.

mkpasswd is a standard part of just about every Linux distribution I've tried it on.

Yes this is what I meant.
