A UNIX system password should be at least 6 characters long and include
at least one upper case letter (A-Z), digit (0-9) or punctuation character
(such as . , or - ).
Passwords will NOT be accepted that:
* Are less than 6 characters long.
* Match anything in your UNIX account information, such as your login
name or an item from your "finger" data entry.
* Are found in the system's spelling dictionary.
* Have less than 5 different characters.
* Are entirely single case letters.
* Fail any of these tests when reversed, pluralized, or truncated.
