To all the folks who write code for Linux:
I live in a house by myself. Nobody else ever uses my computer. I really hate it when some program tells me I need an 8-character password. I would be just as happy to bypass the password stuff altogether, but I have a simple password that I want to use on everything. It has 5 characters, and I can remember it. Please keep people like me in mind. Thank you.
You can change the password settings in Yast. However, as you use email, you probably have some kind of internet connection: please make sure that nobody can connect to your machine from internet and start guessing passwords - even if you don't care about your data in the computer, there are people out there hunting for PCs to convert into zombies and attack other people with them, for instance. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
