		Re: PW validation (was: Re: Opinions wanted: article rating harmful?)
(...) Me too. I mean, I'm not miffed (I have much better things to get miffed about) but it did fail, without exception, every password I have ever used. (...) I do. And the things I apply them to have checks for weak passwds. I suspect that they (...) (24 years ago, 23-Apr-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

		Re: PW validation (was: Re: Opinions wanted: article rating harmful?)
This is an interesting subject. However, I only know one person who keeps a written note of his password/ATM number etc. The only reason he does this is because he is dyslexic. Despite that, I'm sure that as more and more web services now ask for (...) (24 years ago, 25-Apr-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

Todd Lehman skrev i meddelandet ... (...) I'm not sure what you're asking here... What I tried to say was: If I have to construct a (for me) strange password, 'just to please the system' (that's how most users see it, at least), the probability of (...)

I enjoyed getting feedback on aspects of it to the extent that getting useful feedback is enjoyable. (...) Not (...) (24 years ago, 21-Apr-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

		Re: PW validation (was: Re: Opinions wanted: article rating harmful?)
(...) No, the last phase of encoding (and thus the first phase of decoding) for the sign-in cookie is a Base16 (ASCII hex [0-9A-F]) pass. This, however, is applied to an already-encrypted id/pw combo, which has been passed through a pad-style (...) (24 years ago, 22-Apr-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

		Re: Ratings thrown out; changed to Highlighting (was: Re: the latest news)

I'll probably not go back and read this whole discussion (...) (24 years ago, 22-Apr-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

		Re: PW validation (was: Re: Opinions wanted: article rating harmful?)
(...) I haven't posted with respect to this in a while, but I would like to say that if you use this current validator to validate what people can choose for passwords you might as well just not use it and keep sticking people with the ones you are (...)

In that case, you may as well not bother allowing us to change passwords since we can only change to one just as random and hard to remember, which will also go up on a yellow sticky on the monitor like the current one is...

		Re: PW validation (was: Re: Opinions wanted: article rating harmful?)
(...) Thanks for your insightful and thoughtful comments, John! It's really not as complicated as it may seem. There is a simple pw tester, it does a reasonable job of identifying weaknesses in pw's, and it outputs a number in a range. It fails (...) (24 years ago, 24-Apr-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

		Re: Password checks (was: Re: LUGNET Memberships)

A solution to this could be to do the following: - when someone asks for a password reset, create a new password for them, put it in the list, also put it in a special "reset account" password file (along with the ID). - when the user receives (...)
