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.
Now, please explain how they'll be able to tell the difference between
you and someone who needs better security.
As I recall, SUSE only warns you about weak passwords. It doesn't stop
you from using one. In fact, you can even configure it for automatic login.
