SME 7 has a new configuration option for password strength requirements. The default setting requires strong passwords for all three password categories:

   * Admin
   * Information Bays
   * Users

To check the current settings for password strength requirements, (as root) enter:

   /sbin/e-smith/db configuration show passwordstrength

To set the password strength level desired, enter:

   /sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop passwordstrength Users none

This example turns off password strength requirements for users.

Choose between:

   * strong
   * normal
   * none
