    Is it possible to change the MySensors SIMPLE_SECURITY password in the gateway after it has been compiled?

    I'd like to share a base controller SD card image with a lot of people, and then let them all change the password via an interface.

    Is that possible?

      @alowhum you mean MY_ENCRYPTION_SIMPLE_PASSWD ? (Can't find anything in MySensors about SIMPLE_SECURITY)

      I don't think so. Found this in the code:

         printf("Note: The gateway was built with simplified encryption using the password: %s\n" \
                "      Any key set with aes_key option in the config file is ignored.\n\n",

        Yes that's what I mean, sorry :-)

        Hmm, that does not look promising..

          You could distribute not compiled and use a script that changes the password and then compiles the gateway
