- Is the source for Sun's version of passwd available somewhere, so that
- I might add routines for password robustness? Currently, I have
- replaced passwd with a program that checks a user's password for
- several levels of robustness, and then calls the 'real' passwd program
- to do the actual password change. This seems a bit sloppy, and I'd
- like to integrate the two programs, but I can't seem to locate the
- source for passwd.
-
- Any pointers would be appreciated.
