SME Server Version 7 Password Strength

Also see Password Strength Checking in SME Server Documentation

SME 7 has a new configuration option for password strength requirements. The default setting requires strong passwords for all three password categories:

   * Admin
   * Ibays
   * Users

To check the current settings for password strength requirements, (as root) enter:

   /sbin/e-smith/db configuration show passwordstrength

To set the password strength level desired, enter:

(and be very careful with the case)

   /sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop passwordstrength Users none

This example turns off password strength requirements for users.

Choose between:

   * strong
   * normal
   * none
