Subject: RE: Increasing the number of sequential failed loginsI changed the line:
"password required /lib/security/$ISA/pam_cracklib.so retry=3 type="
to:
"password required /lib/security/$ISA/pam_cracklib.so retry=5 type="
but I am still restricted to three logins. We have pam modules that we're migrating from an older distribution of RH which allowed 5 failed logins. Hence why we need to change this number on our new RH 9 boxes. Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Keyvan

Let me
rephrase this. We have pam modules that worked in an environment that
allowed 5 failed logins. They don't quite work right in this 3 failed
login environment.
