Setting Minimum Password Length (RH 7.1)
 
I am running Linux 7.1 and through your help, I have written my first script. Many thanks. Can anyone tell me how to change a new password length to a minimum of 8 characters?

I've messed with the login.defs and some of the PAM configuration files to no end and nothing seems to affect it.

Thanks in advance!

Dave

You still want your free lunch, don't you? Try to go googling around, I am pretty sure I've seen somewhere on the net an article, which explained everythiing about passwords and such, try

And send me some chicken noodles.
