Dear managers,
Tru64 v5.1B pk4
After setting enhanced security (with shadow password) on this test server,
I noticed the minimum required password length is 1 character.
What is the recommended/correct method for changing the minimum password
length to 6 ? ( I cannot find the way to set it with edauth )
Do I just manually edit the file /etc/auth/system/default ?
All comments and tips appreciated.
For reference, here is the output from edauth;
root> edauth -dd -g
