Titel:	Linux: minlen in pam_pwquality.so
Zusammenfassung:	The pam_pwquality module can be plugged into the password stack;of a given service to provide some plug-in strength-checking for passwords. The code was originally;based on pam_cracklib module and the module is backwards compatible with its options.;; - minlen: The minimum acceptable size for the new password (plus one if credits are not disabled;which is the default). In addition to the number of characters in the new password, credit (of +1;in length) is given for each different kind of character (other, upper, lower and digit). The;default for this parameter is 9. Note that there is a pair of length limits also in Cracklib, which;is used for dictionary checking, a 'way too short' limit of 4 which is hard coded in and a build;time defined limit (6) that will be checked without reference to minlen.
