I am using login.conf to set a minimul password length in the default class and root class, after adding :minpasswordlen=8: to default and :minpasswordlen=11: to root and then running
$ cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf
I can still use a password of 1 character. This is on FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE i386. I have tried this on a 4.8 system and this works fine, did I miss something in the release notes?
login.conf(5):
The minpasswordlen and minpasswordcase facilities for enforcing restric-
tions on password quality, which used to be supported by login.conf, have
been superseded by the pam_passwdqc(8) PAM module.
