If you have an account at one of the top providers listed at http://meta.stackoverflow.com/a/147872/139350 (including Stack Exchange itself) logging in should be trivial.Technically I do have a launchpad account, so I could use that. My core issue is that I don't want to provide any of these entities with information about when I do Wireshark work.
I've been trying to come up with a response that's less awful than "find an OpenID provider you trust or set up your own" but so far I've been unsuccessful. Gerrit supports several authentication methods (OpenID, LDAP, and HTTP) but each one seems to assume that you have an existing account somewhere. I.e. if we switch to LDAP or HTTP authentication the account will have to be created and managed elsewhere. The wiki and blog should both be able to act as providers in theory but failed in practice. MoinMoin's provider code scans the entire user database at least once for each page load. Enabling it on wiki.wireshark.org immediately slows the system to a crawl. Wordpress' OpenID provider doesn't seem to generate valid output. Neither Gerrit nor Stack Exchange recognized it. I'll keep looking for options. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
