What is the password lenght one may use at login? I didn't change the defaults on my fbsd-4.11 (login passwd md5 ??)
I remember linux had as default some eight chars or so. I want to use more chars for some accounts. Can I safely use 10-12 chars?
# man passwd (4.x)
The new password should be at least six characters long (which may be overridden using the login.conf(5) ``minpasswordlen'' setting for a user's login class) and not purely alphabetic. Its total length must be less than _PASSWORD_LEN (currently 128 characters).
