[cobalt-users] Password Problems??



Hello,

    I logged into my account today, and su'd to root. However, I mistakenly
made an error in the latter numeric part of my password. For example,
instead of using "samplePass3421", I used: "samplePass342". Regardless, I
was able to log into root, despite the fact that I truncated my password.
When I tried other variations, I found that the numeric portion of my
password was irrelevant. I would not think that this behavior is desirable.
Can someone try and duplicate this behavior?

Best Regards,
Justin Howard
