2.3.1.133. passwordMinLength (Password Minimum Lengt h)
This attribute specifies the minimum number of characters that must be used in Directory Server user
password attributes. In general, shorter passwords are easier to crack. Directory Server enforces a
minimum password of eight characters. This is long enough to be difficult to crack but short enough that
users can remember the password without writing it down.
This can be abbreviated to pwdMinLength.
For more information on password policies, see the "Managing Users and Passwords" chapter in the
Directory Server Administrator's Guide.
Parameter Description
Entry DN cn=config
Valid Range 2 to 512 characters
Default Value 6
Syntax Integer

rejects DJ from being in the password, but the policy rejects a password containing the givenname of
Bob.
