Network Enhanced Password Authentication

Hello;
I am moving a customer from Solaris 2.6 to Solaris 2.8. The customer has requested the following two requirements also be implemented:
1. Lock a user account out for X number of days after 3 unsuccessful login attempts.
2. No reuse of the last 5-10 passwords. Also referred to as password history.

Solaris 8 does not natively support these.
I have read up on epasswd and npasswd they do not meet these requirements either. Any suggestions and all help will be appreciated.

Regards - Mark
