[opensuse-buildservice] OBS password quality
Hi: It is impossible to use a high quality password in the opensuse.org buildservice instance, for some reason the brillant policies disallow special characters allowing only letters and numbers, hence significantly reducing the possible password entropy. Can something be done about this ? also is it possible to use a different method such as a cryptographic key ?

We just use the standard Novell user management to have a common user pool. There is nothing what we can do from OBS side here. -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH email: adrian@suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org

Yes, but I bet this is a left over issue from iChain, now that AccessManager is being used it might be worth filing a ticket. I cannot imagine that AccessManager does not support special characters. Robert
