The min password length in smb.conf is for unix password, you must modify
the parameter with this command
$ pdbedit -P "min password length" -C 3

Where does smbpasswd get its password rules from? I need to change them!
I need to allow for passwords as short as 3 characters.
I've changed my unix rules to allow users using passwd to change their
password correctly but samba will not.
I'm using encrypted passwords so min password length = 3 doesn't do
anything, right?
I keep getting RAP86 errors and the log says password too short account
policy min password len = 5
How do I change this to 3 - do I need to recompile? If so what file
needs to change?
Thanks,
Jeff Kraeger
