mkpwdict

mkpwdict(1M)						  System Administration Commands					      mkpwdict(1M)

NAME

       mkpwdict - maintain password-strength checking database

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/mkpwdict [-s  dict1,... ,dictN] [-d destination-path]

DESCRIPTION

       The mkpwdict command adds words to the dictionary-lookup database used by pam_authtok_check(5) and passwd(1).

       Files containing words to be added to the database can be specified on the command-line using the -s flag. These source files should have a
       single word per line, much like /usr/share/lib/dict/words.

       If -s is omitted, mkpwdict will use the value of DICTIONLIST specified in /etc/default/passwd (see passwd(1)).

       The database is created in the directory specified by the -d option. If this option is omitted, mkpwdict uses  the  value  of  DICTIONDBDIR
       specified in /etc/default/passwd (see passwd(1)). The default location is /var/passwd.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -s

	   Specifies a comma-separated list of files containing words to be added to the dictionary-lookup database.

       -d

	   Specifies the target location of the dictionary-database.

FILES

       /etc/default/passwd

	   See passwd(1).

       /var/passwd

	   default destination directory
