Hi Nathan, Richard, I was thinking along the lines of pam_passwdqc, well part of it. The password should contain at least 3 different character categories. The categories being: lowercase, uppercase, special characters and numbers Not specifically a minumum number of uppercase/lowercase/... Off course there should be no user data in the password, it should not even contain the username as a substring. But I think that code is already in CVS. It's checking for cn, givenname, surname, ... attributes A dictionarry check would be nice but I would maybe make this optional. I guess that if we make the rules too stringent the enduser may complain Greetings, Jo -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
