    Hi everyone,
    i'm implementing a password security policy for all mail users on a
    sendmail server (redhat 7.3), and i need to know if all users DID follow
    the insructions (min lenght = 5, not only A-Z chars, etc). My question is:
    is there a way to pick the passwords file to make some brute force test,
    automatically? (any tool?) (any other way to test them?)

    thanks a lot!

    PD: excuse my english, its not my native language :(
