[TYPO3-english] Password management advice

[Rik Willems]

Hi Oliver,

I've seen this one. It does solve the password distribution but not the 
management part of the user accounts.

When you run 200 websites you don't want to remove a user in each 
installtion when one of your employees leaves. How you other companies 
manage this?

Cheers! Rik
