Hi al.I have a problem with pam.d authentication rules.

I searched on google and modified my system-auth file.Bu some rules does not works properly

my system-auth like below:

--------------------------

auth required pam_env.so auth required pam_tally.so onerr=fail per_user deny=3 auth sufficient pam_unix.so md5 nullok try_first_pass auth requisite pam_succeed_if.so uid >= 500 quiet auth required pam_deny.so

account required pam_tally.so account required pam_unix.so account sufficient pam_succeed_if.so uid < 500 quiet account required pam_permit.so

password requisite pam_cracklib.so minlen=8 lcredit=2 ucredit=2 dcredit=2 ocredit=2 retry=3 password sufficient pam_unix.so md5 shadow nullok try_first_pass use_authtok password required pam_deny.so

session optional pam_keyinit.so revoke session required pam_limits.so session [success=1 default=ignore] pam_succeed_if.so service in crond quiet use_uid session required pam_unix.so

-------------------------------------

1-) Password is not stored md5 style in shadow file when i create new user with password. But when i change user password ,it is stored md5 style in shadow file.

2-) retry=3 is working good but minlen,lcredit,ucredit,dcredit,ocredit does not work ? I can set password less then 8 lenght.

Where am i doing wrong ?

I looked sample configures on internet and http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/Linux-PAM-html/old/pam-6.html

and it is same with my system-auth .Why minlen,lcredit,ucredit,dcredit,ocredit while retry is working ?

Thanks for all helps.
