plugin does not work on MS Winzoz XP

[mmilani@…]

I have installed and configured AccountManagerPlugin on my TRAC v0.95 server, but when I try to change my password from "MyAccount" section, I receive the following error message

Oops... Trac detected an internal error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/dev/urandom'

It seems to be the use of '/dev/urandom' that does not exist on Windows sistems...

Is it a known problem? Thanks Mario

Htpasswd is currently unsupported on Windows due to the lack of a secure random number generator in Python 2.3. See #63

For now I'd recommend using htdigest instead.
