Dear forumers,

Re-posted as no answer received...

We are using Netview security features, to define roles and restrict access to
Netview GUI. The current implementation of nvsecd_admin is quite permissive in
terms of password, and does not respect the "weakness" check using the standard
UNIX acceptable password checking function - see the UNIX man page for
acceptable_password(3).

Does anyone know a configuration (DCE configuration, UNIX C2 configuration, ...)
that would allow Netview to be more secured?

Configuration:

- Digital Unix 4.0f
- Netview 5.1.3
- DCE 2.1

Thanks for any idea
