Hi list, Is there a means to audit/check the strength of passwords on UNIX machines with a native unix utility? If not, would you recommend utilities such as john the ripper or crack? Finally, in this case, any special considerations I should be aware of (account lockouts, system performance...)? Thank you -<M
