Description Barry Jackson 2016-08-20 18:13:08 CEST
Description of problem:
mariadb complains about passwords but gives no idea about what the new "current policy" has been changed to regarding passwords.

This has broken the zoneminder 'zmsetup' script as previously the password strength was not an issue.

Is there a test function to check passwords to know in advance whether they will pass the mariadb "policy", or do I have to write one from scratch - assuming I can find the details of it.

As far as I can tell from querying mariadb there is no password verification plugin enabled, so where has this change in cauldron come from?

It's a real PITA when stuff that was working fine gets gratuitously broken for no good reason.
