If I remember well, any password longer than default
Hi Everyone,
As i googled it, there is no maximum limitations for users' password
length by default.. But we may use *pam_passwdqc* module with *max* option
to check it when required.
And i've heard that no-maximum-limits for passwords length is only possible
when we keep them in encrypted form
There isn't a max password length as far as I'm aware, but there is a max
username length that drive me insane sometimes. I should really file a PR
about that...

Thank you, Mark, for your helpful answer :)
yes, i am aware of the max username length of 16characters.. I just wanted
to become sure about password max length, cause i need to moderate it in my
self-built user interface..
Thank you again :)

Thank you, Lowell, for your reply. :)

when we keep them in encrypted form not as plain text, which i think is
matched with FreeBSD behavior.
Is plain-text passwords even a supported behaviour? I didn't think it was.

Not sure what the limitations are. I know OpenBSD uses blowfish and I have
been using that on older FreeBSD servers as a workaround. I think that

I'd say that bruteforce != dictionary. It's bruteforce _or_

Hmm, looks like it wasn't MFC'd to 9-STABLE before 9.1's release. Well,

I know this may seem off-the-wall to some, but I pasted a hashed
password for a user under 9.1 into the /etc/passwd entry for that user
on an 8.3 machine, and auth continues to work properly. That's nice.
