Re: enforcing strong passwords

[Christian Jaeger]

You could just use the cracklib yourself before accepting the 
password and feeding it to the passwd command. I'm doing it this way.

BTW the only thing that's still very unclear to me is where cracklib 
get's the dictionary files from. The manpage states that there's a 
cronjob for it but I don't yet understand what it does.
