Re: Password too long

From: "openshaw<at>gmail.com" <openshaw@xxxxxxxxx>

| I have a strange issue which is causing some grief. Our policy allows
| passwords up to 127 characters in length. A user changed their password
| to a longer and stronger password and is now unable to enter her full
| password in to the username and password dialog box for some of our
| websites.
|
| She is running IE 6 on a XP SP2 machine. The websites are running on
| IIS 5 and are using the windows integrated authentication mode for
| security. All patches applied at both ends. Has anyone else seen this?
| I am a bit befuddled by this.
|
| Thanks in advance.

Are you kidding ?
127 chars ? Even the NSA only requires 12 chars.

The maximum is something like 14 chars !
