Andrew McCall <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> described the package as follows: License: lgpl Other License: Package: Passcheck - A password sanity tool System name: passcheck Type: GNU Description: Pass check is a password sanity checker, designed to be used as a tool by the various password changing programs. This is a drop in replacement or rewrite of the original cracklib, and shares no code with the original(note: as they do the same thing, there are a few similar algorithms). The intent of this rewrite is to: 1. to provide an updated version of the somewhat difficult to find cracklib 2. to allow DIY\'ers a ready to use cracklib 3. to make an even more thourough and accurate cracklib 4. to provide a LGPL\'d free software implementation, versus the questionable (Original) Artistic license(listed as non-free at gnu.org) Unlike the original cracklib, this library uses the standard system dictionary, and requires no further special files. Current Source Code: http://www.textux.com/passcheck/ Other Software Required: * C compiler * standard wordlist dictionary(usually placed in /usr/share/dict/words) * considering adding zlib for compressed dictionary support Other Comments: _______________________________________________ Savannah-hackers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/savannah-hackers
