Re: password checker There is a public domain pgm 'chkpwd' in SIMTEL20. I have never used it myself. It seems to meet what you want as it uses the algorithm the Internet worm used for cracking passwords in order to look for obvious passwords. The pgm is stored in PD2:<UNIX-C.SYSADMIN> as CHKPWD.TAR-Z. --Yeo Ann Kian Department of Information Systems and Computer Science (DISCS) National University of Singapore (NUS) Email: YEOAK@NUSDISCS.BITNET
