Then perhaps the BLFS instructions should be modified.


No, the BLFS instruction do exactly as they are intended. To
provide instructions to recompile Shadow if Linux-PAM is installed.

My suggestion is to add CrackLib to LFS so that Shadow itself uses
CrackLib.

That's what I mean - modify (or add to) the BLFS instructions so that it explains how to use cracklib with shadow but without PAM.

BTW, Chris, fix your clock on your system. You are running about
5 hours behind. :-)

I know...still haven't figured it out. I'm supposed to be in the Eastern time zone (UTC - 4 hours) but running hwclock says that my local time is 1am (correct) and UTC is 9pm (which would make me 4 hours ahead instead of behind - not correct). I'm (re)reading the LFS hint on time right now...
