I'm having problems getting pam_passwdqc to work on my BSD box.  The module
compiles, and I install it into the pam.conf file as instructed, but passwd
seems to ignore this.  I've tried pam_cracklib as well, with no luck.  Does
the passwd program that ships with FreeBSD 4.2 support pam?  I need to do
password strength checking (Uppercase, lowercase, numbers & special
characters) on the machine (as well as password ageing), and realy need one
of these modules to work.  I've tried porting nPasswd, but that seems to be
getting me nowhere (it was developed for Solaris, mainly, and has not been
ported to FreeBSD as far as I can gather).

Any ideas/suggestions on this?

Thanx.

NM
