Hi,

Maybe you can use npassswd (http://www.utexas.edu/cc/unix/software/npasswd/)

Does anyone know of a NATIVE way that will force users to create a password
containing uppercase, lowercase, alpha, and numeric characters?

The /etc/default/passwd does the MIN & MAX and length........


If there aren't any NATIVE ways, can you all gimme some good 3rd party
utilities or passwd replacements that you use to enforce a stronger passward
construction??

Thanks!!!
