If you have more than about six or eight I'd suggest Kerberos for passwords. Create a policy for what you want and apply it to the relevant user accounts. The downside if you cannot easily migrate your existing passwords so you'll need a transition plan that won't upset your users. It is possible to use both local passwords and Kerberos in parallel so you can put new users on Kerberos and migrate old users at the next password change. -- Stephen -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
