--------------------------------------------- IYou have to factor in the quality of teh passowrd. If you have completly random passwords then longer = better but if you compare "Lisa_Mueller_25_03_1981_Example_Road_10" to "45_!.23sdgsA9" then the later seems a better password because Dictionary attacks will not work. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
