This functionality is not supported in the version of pam_cracklib on ES /WS/AS 3.0, although it is supported on FC2. Our auditors have informed us that such a setting would provide proof of good passwords for Sarbanes/Oxley audits. I have a high interest in this functionality as well. I need this functionality to work properly in AS 2.1 and AS 3.0 as well to pass audit and information security requirements. With dcredit=-1 I was able to enter a password containing all numeric values. This is fixed in RHEL 3.0 U4 and RHEL 2.1 U6 updates. |

PAM accepted it. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): pam-0.75-58 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.set /etc/pam.d/system-auth to the above configuration 2. change your password using "passwd" and enter 'asdf1234' Actual Results: PAM accepted the password Expected Results: PAM should not accept the password Additional info: The same system-auth configuration on Fedora Core 2 ended with this error message: "BAD PASSWORD: is too simple"
