You use easy to guess passwords based on letters and numbers. The
dicctionary and GECOS generated passwords are weak. If you can crack all
the passwords that host doesnt have a password policy.

Have you cracked passwords like:

k;!p-__f
"d%g..H#
^ f!)I..

You can make the passwords > 8 digits so you cant really crack all the
passwords.
