mod_sasl2_fast: Fix harmless off-by-one error (invalidates existing tokens!) Problem: This was causing the key to become "<token>--cur" instead of the expected "<token>-cur". As the same key was used by the code to both set and get, it still worked. Rationale for change: Although it worked, it's unintended, inconsistent and messy. It increases the chances of future bugs due to the unexpected format. Side-effects of change: Existing '--cur' entries will not be checked after this change, and therefore existing FAST clients will fail to authenticate until they attempt password auth and obtain a new FAST token. Existing '--cur' entries in storage will not be cleaned up by this commit, but this is considered a minor issue, and okay for the relatively few FAST deployments.

summary: Personal account management command
...

Introduction
============

This module adds an ad-hoc command that lets an user change their
password. This is useful for clients that don't have support for
[XEP-0077](http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0077.html) style password
changing. In the future, it may provide other account management
commands.

Configuration
=============

    modules_enabled = {
        -- other modules --
        "adhoc_account_management",

    }

    close_sessions_on_password_change = true
    require_current_password = true
    require_confirm_password = true

  Option                                  Default   Description
  --------------------------------------- --------- ----------------------------------------------------------------
  close\_sessions\_on\_password\_change   true      Changing password invalidates other sessions the user may have
  require\_current\_password              true      Add a field for the current password
  require\_confirm\_password              true      Add a field for confirming the current password
