krb5-strength 0.3 released

I'm pleased to announce the first public release of the
krb5-strength
toolkit.

krb5-strength is a toolkit for checking the strength of
passwords against
an external dictionary, applying more transforms and checks
than kadmind
supports by default.  It is implemented as a patch to
kadmind and a plugin
module that is called on each password change.  It embeds a
slightly
modified copy of Alec Muffett's CrackLib to do the password
checking.

You can download it from:

    <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/software/krb5-strength/>

This should be considered beta software.  It is not (yet)
used anywhere in
production.  The long-term goal is to add a plugin interface
to kadmind
suitable for running a strength checking hook so that this
package can
simply provide the loadable module.  In the meantime, I
wanted to make it
available in case anyone is interested.

Please let me know of any problems or feature requests not
already listed
in the TODO file.
