unix passwd
redhat 8.0
when executing passwd user; the system oblige the user to choose a complicated password how to disable this feature and let all users choose the passwords that they like? |
if i remember correctly, thats just an alias that is enabled by default in red hat, like the rm alias that drove me up the wall until i intalled slack. either run passwd with a forward slash in front of it to escape the alias
\passwd user or find out where the alias' are being declared and edit that file. i want to say they are in /etc/profile somewhere, but i could likely be totally off on that |
This is usually featured in the /etc/login.defs file.
|
Log in as root on a terminal and then type the command
passwd <username> The system will accept any password for the specified user. If that dosent work, post the error message that you are getting at the time of command execution. Regards, amit |
i'd like that users could do this (not root)
