$ dpkg -L
For example:

As far as I can see [1], cracklib comes with man pages...

In short: cracklib? cracklib2?
Not all pkgs are covered by man pages, but there are plenty of other information sources.

I'm wanting to upgrade my security, and like to use some of the
suggested tools. I've installed some of the tools, but can't find man
pages on them. Similarly there's no results to be had from googling.

Whenever I insert

at the top of my /etc/pam.d/passwd stack, I get
passwd: Critial error - immediate abort
whenever I try to change a password. Am I misusing this module (running
sid)?
I notice that the PAM documentation says t
Perhaps I wasn't clear before with my headlines. Sorry. Does anyone
know why I might not be getting these *_dict.* files installed?

I've came across the last two lines in /etc/pam.d/passwd involving the cracklib.
I wanted to use it, but it says uncomment the next two lines.
#password required pam_cracklib.so retry=3 minlen=6 difok=3
#password required pam_unix.so use_authtok md5

It's the eternal debate about what the word 'stable' means in a
software distribution. One definition

I keep on getting bizarre mail from cracklib every single day with the
following message:
/etc/cron.daily/cracklib:
45375 45375
Looking in /etc/cron.daily/cracklib doesn't tell me why it's mailing
me with those two numbers, and neither do the cracklib man pages. Any
clues?
Thanks,
Max
