Couple of hack questions..

I am trying to stop kadmind from displaying log messages on the terminal
it is started on. Ideas? (I am using the server in kadmin.old)

Also, I am modifying kpasswd to more closely resemble passwd on my system
as it exists now)

I would like to be able to specify minimum (maximum would be a plus)
password lenghts as well as include support for Moffet's cracklib.

Any ideas?

P.S. I looked at the source for kadmind5 (which appears to have support
for password length, so i am guessing that the changes might need to be
made to the admin server and not the client program. Also, I remember
choosing kadmin (from the old directory) due to some i read saying there
was some compatibility problems with the v5server.

Any info would be appreciated!!

Thanx

Please reply by email if you can (though postings will be read :)
