Password Complexity
MIN_PASSWORD_LENGTH=8
PASSWORD_HISTORY_DEPTH=10
PASSWORD_MIN_UPPER_CASE_CHARS=2
PASSWORD_MIN_LOWER_CASE_CHARS=2
PASSWORD_MIN_DIGIT_CHARS=2
PASSWORD_MIN_SPECIAL_CHARS=2
But none of the above settings are effective when we are changing the password.
Is there any patch to be applied.
Pls help me for solving this issue.
Regards,
Anish

Re: Password Complexity
1) When editing the default file you might have missed something. use sam or getprpw to confirm.
2) userid is not using defaults, using their own settings. confirm with sam or use getprpw username to review what is at default or not. You can always look at each users auth entries as well. -1 typically indicates default.

Re: Password Complexity

Whether i have to convert server to trusted mode for making /etc/default/security file usable.

Re: Password Complexity
If you would like your above mentioned settings to be effective, convert the system to trusted.

Re: Password Complexity
Refer to the /etc/default/security file in the security(4) man page
for detailed information on configurable parameters that affect the
behavior of this command. Currently supported parameters are:
ABORT_LOGIN_ON_MISSING_HOMEDIR
NOLOGIN
NUMBER_OF_LOGINS_ALLOWED

Re: Password Complexity
This server is member of Serviceguard cluster with HNFS configured.
whether The conversion from nontrusted to trusted mode will affect cluster environment as well as application?

Re: Password Complexity
This is an "it depends" situation. For example, if you are running NIS then you cannot convert to Trusted. Also, how password and group data are distributed within your cluster will need to be reviewed and possibly change. The good news is that the trusted system is all but invisible to the vast majority of applications so that passwd and group lookups work just as expected (the underlying UNIX libc functions hide this from the applications). Your packages *should* be okay but the only way to know is to test.
Issues like this are the reason that test and sandbox environments are not a luxury but a requirement.
