Ok, just to be clear, this is NOT just a documentation bug.  As I have
said above (although not very clearly), the "min" option to pam_unix
does not work.  I can have it set to 8 and still add new users with 6
character passwords.  While I do agree with you that the "minlen" option
to pam_cracklib is confusing and needs better documentation, there still
seems to be a bug in the code of pam_unix that prevents the "min" option
from working.  I have seen this behavior on both Hardy and Gutsy.

Thanks again for your attention to this.
