Greetings all, I'd be very grateful for some pointers on this problem I'm having with our mail server - I'm stumped. I'm beating my head against the wall trying to figure out why my mail server is accepting dictionary-based passwords, seemingly, all of a sudden. It's a RH 7.2 box, with lots of 7.3 enhancements on it. I've got the following RPM's on here relevant to the situation: pam-0.75-46.7.2 cracklib-2.7-15 cracklib-dicts-2.7-15 passwd-0.67-3 and here's what my /etc/pam.d/passwd file contains: #%PAM-1.0 auth required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth account required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth password required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth here's what's in my /etc/pam.d/system-auth #%PAM-1.0 # This file is auto-generated. # User changes will be destroyed the next time authconfig is run. auth required /lib/security/pam_env.so auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_unix.so likeauth nullok auth required /lib/security/pam_deny.so account required /lib/security/pam_unix.so password required /lib/security/pam_cracklib.so retry=3 type= password sufficient /lib/security/pam_unix.so nullok use_authtok md5 shadow password required /lib/security/pam_deny.so session required /lib/security/pam_limits.so session required /lib/security/pam_unix.so The cracklib thang *should* work, but at this point the box will accept anything of sufficient character length - regardless of whether it's a word. Any ideas or hints? Heck, make fun of me. Thank you VERY MUCH in advance for any help anyone can find the time to offer! -- Brett Charbeneau, Network Administrator Tel: 757-259-7750 Williamsburg Regional Library FAX: 757-259-7798 7770 Croaker Road brett@xxxxxxx Williamsburg, VA 23188-7064 http://www.wrl.org _______________________________________________ Pam-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/pam-list
