Re: POP3 Password length limit ?

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

 



This issue is Directly related to the information in the PAM files.   My
initial Files did not include md5 or shadow and therefore could not decode
passwords longer than 8 characters.

Hope that this information is useful to someone else.
