Site Password - Resolution

[Nancy Palmquist]

The final info on sitepasswords on Unix whould be the following:

The only file that filePro will review for a site password is: 
/etc/default/fppath

No matter how many systems or data structures you install in whatever 
drives or configurations that is the only file that will hold a global 
site password.

Using a environment variable: PFSP  You can assign a different site 
password for different projects.

However, if a sitepassword is in the fppath file, you can never set any 
variable that will allow a process table to be saved without a 
sitepassword assigned.  None - nadda - no way -- no how.

PFSP=""  will put a sitepassword in the processing table that is blank 
but it will still ask for a site password before you edit the table.

The only way to generate process tables without a sitepassword is to 
remove the site password or set to null in the fppath file.  Missing or 
blank 4th line in the fppath file.

Then you can use PFSP to set site passwords for individual projects as 
needed.

I will add this to my fp tips pages when I have a chance.

On windows, it will use the fppath on the root of the drive where you 
are working.  So if one project is on C:, and one project is on F: they 
can each have a different fppath file.  Just make the working location 
the correct drive.
