Again, I’ve searched through the archives and found quite a few tips
about nonprivileged users, but not one regarding the inability to use
the SelfServer login.
Nonprivileged users are created, and I have given Everyone as well as
UnPrivileged groups the ShowTicket right. But when I attempt to login as
an UnPrivileged user I get an error stating username or password
incorrect. I’ve tried changing the username, I don’t wish to provide a
password, but that did not solve the problem.

Passwordless accounts are imposible.
Also RT does more on user creating, it fills password with string which
never match any password.
I don’t recall that someone post extension which generate password for
new account and send it to user.
There is incomplete password reminder in RT which should regenerate
password and send it to user.
So you have setup some code which do dirty work around user’s passwords.

PS. I think someone already solved this problems and have thier accounts
created with password notifications.

I wrote scrips to do this for one of my instances; this is a scrip
that runs OnCreate with the following action, to set a random password
for newly-created users and email it to them: (runs on 3.0.10, I did have
to patch an earlier 3.0.x to make it work and got the patch adopted)
{
my ($user) = $self->TransactionObj->CreatorObj;
if (($user->id != $RT::Nobody->id) && (!$user->Privileged) &&
$user->__Value(‘Password’) eq ‘NO-PASSWORD’ && $user->Name =~ /@/) {
my ($stat, $pass) = $self->TransactionObj->CreatorObj->SetRandomPassword();
if ($stat) {
unless ($self->TemplateObj) {
$RT::Logger->crit( “$user tried to send “. $user->Name .
" a password reminder, but doesn’t have a template!”);
die “failed to find template”;
}
my $email = RT::Action::SendEmail->new(ScripObj => $self->ScripObj,
TemplateObj => $self->TemplateObj, TicketObj => $self->TicketObj,
TransactionObj => $self->TransactionObj, Argument => $pass);
@{ $email->{‘To’} } = ( $user->EmailAddress );
my ($ret) = $email->Prepare() && $email->Commit();
$RT::Logger->crit(“Set Password scrip: $user: SendEmail failed sending “.
$user->Name . " the password setting reminder.”) unless ($ret);
} else {
$RT::Logger->crit(“Set Password Scrip: Failed to set password for: "”.
$user->Name.”", pass=”.$pass);
}
}
1;
}
The relevant part of the template is:
To login, enter the username "{$Transaction->CreatorObj->Name()}"
and the password "{$Argument}". You may change your password once in the
system.
I set up a separate queue for the purpose of resetting passwords automatically.
Any message sent to that queue invokes a scrip that resets the password
and sends mail back to the user with the new one; the guts of the scrip:
{
my ($user) = $self->TransactionObj->CreatorObj;
if (($user->id != $RT::Nobody->id) && (!$user->Privileged) &&
$user->Name =~ /@/) {
my ($stat, $pass) = $self->TransactionObj->CreatorObj->SetRandomPassword();
if ($stat) {
unless ($self->TemplateObj) {
$RT::Logger->crit( “$user tried to send “. $user->Name .
" a password reminder, but doesn’t have a template!”);
die “failed to find template”;
}
my $email = RT::Action::SendEmail->new(ScripObj => $self->ScripObj,
TemplateObj => $self->TemplateObj, TicketObj => $self->TicketObj,
TransactionObj => $self->TransactionObj, Argument => $pass);
@{ $email->{‘To’} } = ( $user->EmailAddress );
my ($ret) = $email->Prepare() && $email->Commit();
$RT::Logger->crit(“Set Password scrip: $user: SendEmail failed sending “.
$user->Name . " the password setting reminder.”) unless ($ret);
} else {
$RT::Logger->crit(“Set Password Scrip: Failed to set password for: "”.
$user->Name.”", pass=”.$pass);
}
}
1;
}
