the best way to do this is run crack or john against the password file
periodically and see if you can crack anything. there is no such feature
available that can regulary check for easy passwords. the password
command should enfore this when entering a new password anyways.

What is used by the regular "passwd" command to check for passwords
that are too easy to guess?
I'm writing an adduser script and would like to incorporate some
checking into it's password creation routine.
Thanks,
