Possible values: # # open - Issue is available to be worked on. # # inprogress - Active development is in progress. # # blocked - Issue cannot be implemented for some reason. # # fixed - Fixed, optional status to use before closed. # # closed - Issue has been dealt with definitively. # # punted - Decision made not to address the issue, # possibly not ever. # # suspended - Decision made not to address the issue # in the immediate future, but noting that it may # have some merit and may be revisited later. # # duplicate - Duplicate of another issue that. # # obsolete - The need behind the request has become # overcome by events. # # Project: The project this job is for. Required. # # Severity: [A/B/C] (A is highest) Required. # # ReportedBy The user who created the job. Can be changed. # # ReportedDate: The date the job was created.

Job: SDP-641 Status: open Project: perforce-software-sdp Severity: C ReportedBy: tom_tyler ReportedDate: 2021/04/28 14:29:36 ModifiedBy: tom_tyler ModifiedDate: 2021/04/29 05:55:53 OwnedBy: tom_tyler Description: Get SDP to work w/o cleartext password file. See also: SDP-639, SDP-642. The verify_sdp.sh script requires a password file. Some scripts (like p4login and mkrep.sh) and libraries (backup_functions.sh) reference the password file. Many other scripts call p4login, which will not function properly without a password file unless there is a valid, long-term ticket. It is not clear whether we will want to just rely on a ticket, or if this job should include having p4login somehow enhanced to deal with encrypted password files. It is not clear if this is an easy change or not. Code, doc, and/or test suite changes may be needed. Component: core-unix Type: Feature
