What is the password lenght one may use at login? I didn't change the defaults on my fbsd-4.11 (login passwd md5 ??) I remember linux had as default some eight chars or so. I want to use more chars for some accounts. Can I safely use 10-12 chars? -- dick -- http://nagual.st/ -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE ++ Running FreeBSD 4.11 ++ FreeBSD 5.3 + Nai tiruvantel ar vayuvantel i Valar tielyanna nu vilja
