They still can. :-) However, should LFS install the mechanism to provide such an absolutely poor security model? I don't think so. And I can't imagine anyone else thinking so also, unless they simply just want to disagree with the suggestion. Installing CrackLib in LFS just makes more sense to me now than when I came up with the idea 8 hours ago. There so far has not been one technical reason why we shouldn't do it. -- Randy rmlscsi: [GNU ld version 2.15.94.0.2 20041220] [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4] [Linux 2.6.10 i686] 00:29:00 up 125 days, 2 min, 2 users, load average: 0.13, 0.38, 0.60 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
