Password strength policies
The five password strength policies implemented through the pdadmin policy command include:
- Minimum password length (min-password-length)
- Minimum alphabetic characters (min-password-alphas)
- Minimum non-alphabetic characters (min-password-non-alphas)
- Maximum repeated characters (max-password-repeated-chars)
- Spaces allowed (password-spaces)
These policies are enforced when you create a user with the Web Portal Manager or pdadmin utility, and when a password is changed with the Web Portal Manager or pdadmin utility, or the pkmspasswd utility.
