i need to ease up on the password requirements put on users when changing
their passwords. i have quite a few customers who do not have shell access
to servers within my company, however when they go to change their
password, they continually complain that what they attempt to use as a new
password is always rejected.
i assume that this has something to do with pam restrictions? i am pretty
new to pam and how it works. i frankly need to allow users to set their
passwords as they see fit on certain servers. how can i go about allowing
this?

thanks -cjm
