Password compliance setting
I need to set password compliance for some servers in my company.
However, the requirements are that we need to set different password policies for 3 different user groups within the company. These are :
  1. System Users: i.e root, etc
  2. Batch/Application Users: oracle, bscs, etc
  3. Standard User: emoyikje, vincentw, etc
Is it possible to get this done?
As far as I know there is only one global file for password compliance setting, which is /etc/default/security.

How do I create different policies for 3 different user groups?

html::formhandler::field::password

HTML::FormHandler::Field::Password(3pm) 		User Contributed Perl Documentation		   HTML::FormHandler::Field::Password(3pm)

NAME

       HTML::FormHandler::Field::Password - password field

VERSION

       version 0.40013

DESCRIPTION

       The password field has a default minimum length of 6, which can be easily changed:

	 has_field 'password' => ( type => 'Password', minlength => 7 );

       It does not come with additional default checks, since password requirements vary so widely. There are a few constraints in the
       HTML::FormHandler::Types modules which could be used with this field:  NoSpaces, WordChars, NotAllDigits.  These constraints can be used in
       the field definitions 'apply':

	  use HTML::FormHandler::Types ('NoSpaces', 'WordChars', 'NotAllDigits' );
	  ...
	  has_field 'password' => ( type => 'Password',
		 apply => [ NoSpaces, WordChars, NotAllDigits ],
	  );

       You can add your own constraints in addition, of course.

       If a password field is not required, then the field will be marked 'noupdate', to prevent a null from being saved into the database.

   ne_username
       Set this attribute to the name of your username field (default 'username') if you want to check that the password is not the same as the
       username.  Does not check by default.
