Hi,
I've been digging around for a function to do a sanity check on
user-supplied passwords when creating a new account. Haven't found
anything yet... Any pointers appreciated.
Ideally it should:
-check for a min number of numerals
-check for similarity against username (?)
-check at least a small dictionary
Although anything that could provide a starting point would be great.
Thanks,
Charles
