NAME
pwd_strengthd - The sample Password Management Server
SYNOPSIS
pwd_strengthd [+/-all[_spaces]] [+/-alp[ha_num]]
[-c[ache_size]] size [-d[ebug]]
[-m[in_len]] pwd_min_len [-t[imeout]] minutes
[-v[erbose]]
OPTIONS
Allow passwords to be all spaces. If this option is not set, the effective registry policy is used. Disallow passwords to be all spaces.
If this option is not set, the effective registry policy is used. Allow passwords to consist only of alphanumeric characters. If this
option is not set, the effective registry policy is used. Disallow passwords to consist only of alphanumeric characters. If this option is
not set, the effective registry policy is used. Specify the number of hash buckets in the password cache. The password cache is used to
store generated passwords which are retrieved when the password is strength checked. The password cache is a hash table with a linked list
for collisions. The size should be set to a reasonable value based on how large the cache will be on average. The default value if not
specified is 100. Run in the foreground. Log messages are written to standard output. Specify the minimum length of a password. If this
option is not set, the effective registry policy is used. Specify the time, in minutes, that generated passwords remain in the cache
before they are deleted from memory. If this option is not specified, the default time is 30 minutes. Runs in verbose mode. More detailed
messages are sent to the logfile $DCELOCAL/var/security/pwd_strengthd.log. (Use of this option is recommended.)
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
pwd_strengthd is a sample Password Management Server. It exports the rsec_pwd_mgmt application programming interface.
pwd_strengthd generates passwords and strength-checks them. It enforces the security registry policy for password strength-checking.
Administrators can override the security registry policy via the command-line options (alpha_num, all_spaces, min_len.)
Administrators can subject principals to password-strength and -generation policies by attaching the following ERAs: Specifies the password
management policy the user must conform to when selecting passwords. Specifies information required in order to connect to the password
management server.
See the OSF DCE Administrator's Guide -- Core Services for more information and examples. You may want to enhance pwd_strengthd to support
your site's policies for password strength and generation.
