Hi,

where can i set restrictions on newly set passwords, for example:
- minimum length
- maximum length
- at least one special char required
- at least one number required
and so on?

I have found corresponding Strings in messages*properties, but could not find configuration settings.

Thanks,
Kai

I have been looking for a similar thing. I found the following in \webapps\alfresco\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\web-client-config.xml

<!– minimum length for username and password –>
         <username-min-length>2</username-min-length>
         <password-min-length>3</password-min-length>

But would be interested in knowing if there are more options.

Thanks,

Chris
