-.SH NAME
-pam_pwquality \- PAM module to perform password quality checking
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-\fBpam_pwquality\&.so\fR [\fI\&.\&.\&.\fR]
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.PP
-This module can be plugged into the
-\fIpassword\fR
-stack of a given service to provide some plug\-in strength\-checking
-for passwords\&. The code was originally based on pam_cracklib module
-and the module is backwards compatible with its options\&.
-.PP
-The action of this module is to prompt the user for a password and check
-its strength against a system dictionary and a set of rules for identifying
-poor choices\&.
-.PP
-The first action is to prompt for a single password, check its strength
-and then, if it is considered strong, prompt for the password a second time
-(to verify that it was typed correctly on the first occasion)\&. All being
-well, the password is passed on to subsequent modules to be installed as the
-new authentication token\&.
-.PP
-The strength checks works in the following manner: at first the
-\fBCracklib\fR
-routine is called to check if the password is part of a dictionary; if this
-is not the case an additional set of strength checks is done\&. These checks
-are:
-.PP
-Palindrome
-.RS 4
-Is the new password a palindrome?
-.RE
-.PP
-Case Change Only
-.RS 4
-Is the new password the the old one with only a change of case?
-.RE
-.PP
-Similar
-.RS 4
-Is the new password too much like the old one? This is primarily controlled
-by one argument,
-\fBdifok\fR
-which is a number of character changes (inserts, removals, or replacements)
-between the old and new password that are enough to accept the new
-password\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-Simple
-.RS 4
-Is the new password too small? This is controlled by 6 arguments
-\fBminlen\fR,
-\fBmaxclassrepeat\fR,
-\fBdcredit\fR,
-\fBucredit\fR,
-\fBlcredit\fR, and
-\fBocredit\fR\&. See the section on the arguments for the details of how
-these work and there defaults\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-Rotated
-.RS 4
-Is the new password a rotated version of the old password?
-.RE
-.PP
-Same consecutive characters
-.RS 4
-Optional check for same consecutive characters\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-Too long monotonic character sequence
-.RS 4
-Optional check for too long monotonic character sequence\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-Contains user name
-.RS 4
-Optional check whether the password contains the user\*(Aqs name in some form\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-These checks are configurable either by use of the module arguments
-or by modifying the \fB/etc/security/pwquality.conf\fR configuration file\&. The
-module arguments override the settings in the configuration file\&.
-.PD
-.SH OPTIONS
-.PP
-\fBdebug\fR
-.RS 4
-This option makes the module write information to
-\fBsyslog\fR(3)
-indicating the behavior of the module (this option does not write password
-information to the log file)\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\fBauthtok_type=\fR\fB\fIXXX\fR\fR
-.RS 4
-The default action is for the module to use the following prompts when
-requesting passwords: "New UNIX password: " and
-"Retype UNIX password: "\&. The example word
-\fIUNIX\fR
-can be replaced with this option, by default it is empty\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\fBretry=\fR\fB\fIN\fR\fR
-.RS 4
-Prompt user at most
-\fIN\fR
-times before returning with error\&. The default is
-\fI1\fR\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\fBdifok=\fR\fB\fIN\fR\fR
-.RS 4
-This argument will change the default of
-\fI1\fR
-for the number of changes in the new password from the old password\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\fBminlen=\fR\fB\fIN\fR\fR
-.RS 4
-The minimum acceptable size for the new password (plus one if credits are not
-disabled which is the default)\&. In addition to the number of characters in
-the new password, credit (of +1 in length) is given for each different kind
-of character (\fIother\fR,
-\fIupper\fR,
-\fIlower\fR
-and
-\fIdigit\fR)\&. The default for this parameter is
-\fI8\fR
-\&. Note that there is a pair of length limits also in
-\fICracklib\fR,
-which is used for dictionary checking, a "way too short" limit of 4 which
-is hard coded in and a build time defined limit (6) that will be checked
-without reference to \fBminlen\fR\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\fBdcredit=\fR\fB\fIN\fR\fR
-.RS 4
-(N >= 0) This is the maximum credit for having digits in the new password\&.
-If you have less than or
-\fIN\fR
-digits, each digit will count +1 towards meeting the current
-\fBminlen\fR
-value\&. The default for
-\fBdcredit\fR
-is
-\fI0\fR

-password\&.

-.RS 4
-The minimum number of required classes of characters for the new password\&.
-The default number is zero\&. The four classes are digits, upper and lower
-letters and other characters\&. The difference to the
-\fBcredit\fR
-check is that a specific class if of characters is not required\&. Instead
-\fIN\fR
-out of four of the classes are required\&.
-.RE

-Reject passwords which contain monotonic character sequences longer than N\&.
-The default is 0 which means that this check is disabled\&.

-.PP
-\fBenforce_for_root\fR
-.RS 4
-The module will return error on failed check even if the user changing the
-password is root\&. This option is off by default which means that just

-the password anyway\&. Note that root is not asked for an old password

-.RE
-.PP
-\fBlocal_users_only\fR
-.RS 4
-The module will not test the password quality for users that are not present

+=item B<difok=>I<N>
+
+This argument will change the default of I<1> for the number of changes in
+the new password from the old password.
+
+=item B<minlen=>I<N>
+
+The minimum acceptable size for the new password (plus one if credits are not

+
+(N >= 0) This is the maximum credit for having lower case letters in the new password.
+If you have less than or I<N> lower case letters, each lower case letter will count +1 towards meeting

+No new password was entered, the username could not be determined or the

+
+=head1 EXAMPLES
+
+For an example of the use of this module, we show how it may be stacked
+with the password component of L<pam_unix(8)>.
+
+ #
+ # These lines stack two password type modules. In this example the
+ # user is given 3 opportunities to enter a strong password. The
+ # "use_authtok" argument ensures that the pam_unix module does not
+ # prompt for a password, but instead uses the one provided by
+ # pam_pwquality.
+ #
+ password required pam_pwquality.so retry=3
+ password required pam_unix.so use_authtok
+
+Another example is for the case that you want to use sha256 password
+encryption:
+
+ #
+ # These lines allow modern systems to support passwords of at least 14
+ # bytes with extra credit of 2 for digits and 2 for others the new
+ # password must have at least three bytes that are not present in the
+ # old password
+ #
+ password required pam_pwquality.so \
+               difok=3 minlen=15 dcredit=2 ocredit=2
+ password required pam_unix.so use_authtok nullok sha256
+
+And here is another example in case you don't want to use credits:
+
+ #
+ # These lines require the user to select a password with a minimum
+ # length of 8 and with at least 1 digit number, 1 upper case letter,
+ # and 1 other character
+ #
+ password required pam_pwquality.so \
+               dcredit=-1 ucredit=-1 ocredit=-1 lcredit=0 minlen=8
+ password required pam_unix.so use_authtok nullok sha256

-pwmake \- simple tool for generating random relatively easily pronounceable
-passwords
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-\fBpwmake\fR <entropy-bits>
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-\fBpwmake\fR is a simple configurable tool for generating random and relatively
-easily pronounceable passwords. The tool allows you to specify the number of
-entropy bits that are used to generate the password.
-
-The entropy is pulled from \fB/dev/urandom\fR.
-
-The minimum number of bits is \fB56\fR which is usable for passwords on
-systems/services where brute force attacks are of very limited rate of tries.
-The \fB64\fR bits should be adequate for applications where the attacker
-does not have direct access to the password hash file. For situations where
-the attacker might obtain the direct access to the password hash or the
-password is used as an encryption key \fB80\fR to \fB128\fR bits should be
-used depending on your level of paranoia.
-
-.PD
-.SH OPTIONS
-The first and only argument is the number of bits of entropy used to generate
-the password.

-.SH FILES
-\fB/etc/security/pwquality.conf\fR - The configuration file for the libpwquality
-library.
