Hi,
Can you provide more insight on #1 - regarding strong passwords?
We're planning to implement something along this line in the upcoming
WS_FTP
Server 2006. Would this suffice?
1. set min chars (e.g 8)
2. require alpha (yes/no)
3. require numeric (yes/no)
4. allow special chars (e.g. - _ . etc.)
5. expire pw on specific date (jan 1, 2006) or after x days (30)
6. case sensitive (yes/no)
7. don't allow last x used passwords (e.g. 5)
What *we* use is like what Windows does.
4 catagories (lowercase, upper case, digits, special)
use at least 3 catagories
min length x (we use 7) chars
Passwords should allways be case sensitive. So if there are any defaults for
the 7 items above, 6 should default to yes.
Groetjes,
Bonno Bloksma
