Title:
lightdm doesn't reprompt for password if bad complexity
Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:

Description: Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS
Release: 12.04
lightdm:
Installed: 1.2.1-0ubuntu1.1
Candidate: 1.2.1-0ubuntu1.1

I have configure my 12.04 system to use pam_cracklib to enforce
password compexity requirements. I have put this line in /etc/pam.d
/common-password at the top:
password requisite pam_cracklib.so
retry=3 dcredit=-1 difok=4 lcredit=-1 minlen=14 ocredit=-1 ucredit=-1
At the command line if a user changes their password and doesn't meet
the complexity requirements it tells them so and re-asks for a
password. At the lightdm login screen if a user's password has
expired it tells them so and asks for a new password. If the
complexity requirements are not meant it tells them in red letters but
just asks them to reenter the bad password. /etc/pam.d/lightdm
includes common-password at the bottom so I thought this woud be
sufficient bu it appears not.
Hopefully it just a configuration error on my part but I have spent a
long time seraching the web for references to this problem and have
found none.
Thanks for the help.
