Some changes have just been added to the members page...

- Password recovery option: Submitting your username will generate a 
message to your registered email address containing a new password. Note 
that this password is only good for 2 hours, and you may still use your 
old password during this time.  If you log in with the new password, 
your password will be reset to that string.  I would advise that you 
change your password as soon as you log in.

- Registered IPs details: This field now shows a timestamp (UTC) of the 
last time that IP address was renewed.

- Regenerate Auth button (near the bottom): If you feel your auth key 
has been compromised, you can now generate a new key.  After 
confirmation (assuming you have javascript enabled), the new auth key 
will take effect immediately and your old auth will no longer work.  
Make sure you update any scripts that renew your whitelisted IPs, 
validate DDNS IPs, or retrieve ACL information.

Hopefully these new options will resolve deficiencies in the page, but 
if there's still any problems you can contact me via email or on IRC.
