How do i define what passwords are allowed or disallowed? I have 6 users with disallowed passwords. Where do I find the parameters to define passwords or just deactivate the option for allowed or disallowed. I saw this message in check bbs external program. Thank you.

Well... "password.can" to be precise/accurate.

To Rixter: Are you aware of, and have you looked at, the SBBS Wiki:

I don't believe he is viewing users password, there is a "Check Setup" progam in the xtrn section that I believe will tell you that there are dis-allowed passwords. I believe that what he is trying to say here..

This is the wrong sub-board for Synchronet support questions.

me either I am not even sure how to view them, nor do i truly care. i just saw message from check bbs about some passwords being disallowed. I was just curious. You know I think I will just wing it from now on. Non helpful replies are starting to seem a bit hostile all of the sudden. Sorry I bothered anyone. I will just use the wiki and try my best. thanks for all the help in the past though! Have a good weekend.

yes that is correct. I am going to use the wiki and stay out of the message boards. I probably clog it up with stupid questions anyway. Have a good weekend.
