Re: /etc/default/passwd
There's the /etc/default/security file which can be used to specify certain rules like password length. Other than that I'm unaware of such a file.

Re: /etc/default/passwd
1) The default passwd file is - /etc/passwd
2) If you are looking for passwd configuration file, it's - /etc/default/security. Check man 4 security for available options or check here:
http://www.docs.hp.com/cgi-bin/fsearch/framedisplay?top=/hpux/onlinedocs/B9106-90011/B9106-90011_top.html&con=/hpux/onlinedocs/B9106-90011/00/01/111-con.html&toc=/hpux/onlinedocs/B9106-90011/00/01/111-toc.html&searchterms=/etc/default/security&queryid=20030611-114200
3) If you are looking for a passwd template file, look here - /usr/newconfig/etc/passwd
4) For passwd file general rules and options:
# man passwd

Re: /etc/default/passwd
Do a "man security".
Some options are only supported on trusted systems.

Re: /etc/default/passwd
Can't find the file /etc/default/security file.
Trying to find out where the following message
comes from when adding/modifying a password
"Password too short - must be at least 6 characters"
Is this hard coded in the passwd executable?
