I've installed some of the tools, but can't find man pages on them. You can see the files installed by a package by running: $ dpkg -L For example: $ dpkg -L coreutils man pages will typically be under /usr/share/man: $ dpkg -L coreutils | grep ^/usr/share/man/ dpkg -L == dpkg --listfiles Note that this will not list files generated during installation (for example a kernel module package that triggers a DKMS build would likely show the source code but _not_ the built binaries) or configuration files created later; but that shouldn't be an issue with man pages. -- Michael Kjörling https://michael.kjorling.se “Remember when, on the Internet, nobody cared that you were a dog?”

Not all pkgs are covered by man pages, but there are plenty of other information sources. Cheers!
Can't find informatin on passwdqc, pwqcheck or cracklib
I'm wanting to upgrade my security, and like to use some of the suggested tools. I've installed some of the tools, but can't find man pages on them. Similarly there's no results to be had from googling. I must be missing something.. NC
