[firstboot 1/2] Add the pwcheck module for getting the password strength

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



pwcheck returns the strength of a password in an interval
of 0 to 7, 0 meaning weak, and 7 strong. It also has a
mapping of string representations of these strength values,
so we can show this information to the user.
