This package contains a system utility (passwd) which sets or changes passwords, using PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) library.
passwdqc is a password/passphrase strength checking and policy enforcement toolset, including a PAM module (pam_passwdqc), command-line programs (pwqcheck and pwqgen), and a library (libpasswdqc). pam_passwdqc is normally invoked on password changes by programs such as passwd(1). It is capable of checking password or passphrase strength, enforcing a policy, and offering randomly-generated passphrases, with all of these features being optional and easily (re-)configurable. pwqcheck and pwqgen are standalone password/passphrase strength checking and random passphrase generator programs, respectively, which are usable from scripts. libpasswdqc is the underlying library, which may also be used from third-party programs.
passwdqc is a password/passphrase strength checking and policy enforcement toolset, including a PAM module (pam_passwdqc), command-line programs (pwqcheck, pwqfilter, and pwqgen), and a library (libpasswdqc). pam_passwdqc is normally invoked on password changes by programs such as passwd(1). It is capable of checking password or passphrase strength, enforcing a policy, and offering randomly-generated passphrases, with all of these features being optional and easily (re-)configurable. pwqcheck and pwqgen are standalone password/passphrase strength checking and random passphrase generator programs, respectively, which are usable from scripts. The pwqfilter program searches, creates, or updates binary passphrase filter files, which can also be used with pwqcheck and pam_passwdqc. libpasswdqc is the underlying library, which may also be used from third-party programs.
This package contains libpasswdqc library.
This package contains standalone utilities which are usable from scripts: pwqcheck (a standalone passphrase strength checking program), pwqgen (a standalone random passphrase generator program), and pwqfilter (a standalone program that searches, creates, or updates binary passphrase filter files).
