Password half password of password normal password English password text password is password not password the password 'password', password or password similar password text password. (I know, "the", "a", "in", "of", etc. But these extremely common English words are also extremely short, and are often eliminated from these entropy counts anyway as 'semantic glue.') ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
