Hi Steve! Well... I can even attempt to set a six character or eight charakter password, it won't accept it.
It did not accept it BEFORE I MANUALLY installed libpam-cracklib, which was NOT installed per default. If i set the min= Parameter to for example 4 I still cannot enter a six digit password. And after all not only the length is being checked as it appears but also what charakters it contains. On ceretain occasions I get things like 'password strength is "weak"' and so it won't set the password. But as far as I can see that does not come from pamlib-cracklib as I installed that manually after some googling in the hope that I could influence the password criteria then. Currently libpam-cracklib is NOT set in /etc/pam.d/common-password and it still completely ignores the min=4 parameter! Greetings! -- changing pwd strength criteria in /etc/pam.d/common.password takes no effect at all https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/671332 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
