In that book, they show how to do some minimal restriction under System V to force people to use good password. I would like than any person on my FreeBSD box use a minimum of 8 characters in a password, 3 letter and 2 number minimum, some caps and some special characters(Which are the special characters allowed?). Does it's possible, any man page? -- [Malartre][malartre@aei.ca][http://www.aei.ca/~malartre/] To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
