Title: password strength in SME7
Post by: tkeiser on December 26, 2005, 10:17:39 AM

When I go to upgrade my clients' servers to SME7, I am going to have to strengthen all of their passwords to be able to log on. (Caps+lower case, numbers + other characters in every pswd, 7 chars min).

Will there be some method for the admin to relax these rules? Not only will the pswd change be burdensome in some cases (60+ workstations) but in installations with only shared data, the extra strength would seem to be unnecessary.

I can't quite call this a bug, which is why I've posted here.

Thank you.

Hi tkeiser - search for "strong password" in the box on the upper left - this has gone 'round a cpl of times recently.

Good Luck!
