How to view or set the password rules?
- Thread starter volcano
- Start date
As far as I know, in Solaris 8 (OS 5.8) you can adjust the minimum password length but not force at least 1 capital letter. This is done in the file /etc/default/passwd (along with the expiration period and minimium time between changes). I know in Tru64 UNIX the 1 capital letter rule is there, but not in "vanilla" Solaris 8.
I hope that helps you.
