Because there is no reference to /etc/security/pam_pwcheck.conf, I would say
that fiddling with the cracklib settings is not going to help. It looks as
though the support is just not there in SLES7.

password: nullok use_cracklib remember=10
and previously used passwords will be listed in /etc/security/opasswd.
