Well, the ldap_example profile is intended as an example. However, unlike in the acc-cracklib profile, there is no mention of requiring libpam-cracklib to actually use the profile. I have adjusted the comment accordingly and committed the change to bzr, and it will be included in the next update of auth-client-config.
Also, the auth-client-config tool is designed so administrators can deploy custom PAM/nss configurations easily, as there will always be a need for customized PAM configuration in certain environments. Currently some are using it as a stop gap while the PAM restructuring is being developed to achieve a better 'out-of-the-box' experience. -- cracklib referenced in common-passwd but not installed by default https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/252557 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
