Rails - May 2007 - change Password

Hallo to all

I have a big Problem by changing the Password of user. I have a database
with user and theier password and now i want to reset the Password!

admin_controller.rb
  def restore_user
    @user = User.find_by_id(params[:id])
    @user.deleted = false
    @user.save
    flash[:notice] ="Benutzer #{@user.username} wiederhergestellt"
    redirect_to(:action => "list_delete")
  end

user.rb
  def password=(pwd)
    @password = pwd
    create_new_salt
    self.hashed_password = User.encrypted_password(self.password,
self.salt)
  end

Please can somebody help me??

Thank you

Harald

   > I have a big Problem by changing the Password of user.

You didn''t say what your proble is!
Anyway, here is - working - code I use to reset the user''s lost
password.

in the users_controller.rb
------------------------------
def generate_and_send_new_password
  ..
  @user = User.find_by_login(params[:login])
  @user.password_confirmation = @user.password = generate_password

  flash[:notice] = "new password sent to #{@user.email}"
  PasswordMailer.deliver_new_password( @user, @user.password,
login_url+"?login=#{@user.login}")
  render :action => ''password_changed''
end

  # src:
http://www.rubyonrailsblog.com/articles/2006/09/29/ruby-on-rails-random-password-generator
  def generate_password(length = 6)
    chars = (''a''..''z'').to_a +
(''A''..''Z'').to_a +
(''1''..''9'').to_a -
[''o'', ''O'', ''i'',
''I'']
    Array.new(length) { chars[rand(chars.size)] }.join
  end
end
