Just check the frozen and unstable distributions on the debian
servers.  That's where they will go.

There's cracklib which is a proactive checker in that it checks
passwords as the users set them.

Currently there are several bugs for the package but I'm actively
working on them.  Should see a new upload in a few days.

password security: john, cops, etc

1999-01-26 Thread Pere Camps
Hi!

Is there any debianized program to check the 'strictness' of
passwords. Something like john, cops, etc.

I'm also looking for a passwd replacement that enforces 'strict'
passwords.

TIA!
