Hi. I suggest you look at your PAM settings (/etc/pam.d/ssh, /etc/pam.d/passwd, /etc/pam.d/login). The relevant lines will probably be: password required pam_unix.so obscure min=6 max=18 md5 where 'min' is the minimal and 'max' the maximal length of a password. bye -- Peter Samek [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
