[jira] [Commented] (GUACAMOLE-1352) ADMINISTER has no permission to update own information

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-1352?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17350217#comment-17350217 ] 

Mike Jumper commented on GUACAMOLE-1352:
----------------------------------------

It is intentional that the administrator cannot:

* Edit their own permissions
* Change their own password _via the admin interface_

Changing your own password has to be done through the password change interface in "preferences", which requires you to enter your current password. The admin interface for resetting a user's password (which does not require entering the current password) will reject any attempt by the current user to perform that operation on themselves.

The interface should make this more clear, but the behavior you describe is desired.
