Dear Steve! I am afraid I overlooked the 'obsure' completely... It really did the trick! PLEASE accept my apologies for having caused this fuzz completely needlessly... BUT - to my defence - the documentation and help pages on the net really confused me (remember the maxlen= switch? I meanwhile found that one in /etc/login.defs...) AND still, the max= option seems to be completely ignored when obscured is set... not useful to set these two in combination... Please feel free to set the thread to "RTFM more carefully" or anything alike now! Thanks once more! Your's, firebug
