Sure. Assign those passwords and then crank up your "can't repeat" password count. J
Alternately, use a script to run through all the users on a daily basis, attempting to authenticate using those passwords, and spit out an error report (and/or disable the user). I'm pretty sure what you want would be a custom GINA. And that's non-trivial. Regards, Michael B.

I want to try and prevent certain words and phrases being used (like the one thats the default for a reset for instance). Either my GoogleFoo is rubbish, or im missing something.
