Airsonic: Allow to delete default admin user

Created on 30 Nov 2017  路  4Comments  路  Source: airsonic/airsonic

Problem description

Currently, after installation, Airsonic creates default user admin that is used to make first configuration.
The problem is that there is no way to delete/disable such user - it rises security problem as any "bad" person already knows existing login.

Possible solutions:

  • Allow to delete such user if any other user with admin rights present
  • Allow to rename user on installation
  • Allow to disable this user

I have to chime in.
Ability to delete, or rename.
Having the login admin openly on the wild web, even on a non-standard port, is an invitation for hackers.

Sorry for not being able to make the required changes to the java code myself.

Otherwise a big thank you, this is working nicely, I was even able to watch video on my phone.

Agreed ! :+1:

2017!? This is an important feature I think. I'd like to see an update on this if possible.

I don't think that anybody is actively working on this, feel free to send a PR, I'll be happy to review it.
