Subject: passwdqc min= and enforce= should be quick questions
So on some newer systems we are using passwdqc via pam.d.
The (not actual) settings are:
min=5,5,5,5,5 similar=deny enforce=everyone
Based on the man pages: with the above min settings, a password like
passw should work. (unless I'm reading the man pages wrong).
pam/passwdqc doesn't allow that, and I'm assuming that's because of
the enforce=everyone directive. My question is, HOW passwdqc enforces
passw is NOT a strong password.
Thanks in advance,
Dave
