CentOS-6.6 Is there any command line program that determines and reports what pam_cracklib.so returns for a given password; subject to variation in the command line options and values provided? For example, assuming a cli driver program called cli_driver_pgm: cli_driver_pgm pam_cracklib.so difok=8 minlen=14 dcredit=3 ucredit=3 lcredit=3 ocredit=3 minclass=2 maxrepeat=3 maxsequence=3 reject_username gecoscheck -- somepassword -> pam_cracklib calculated minlen value for somepassword My Google-fu appears to have deserted me. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.
