This is interesting. You say that your users *hated* pronouncable
but non-word passwords. Hmm.. But that's the only sort of password
I ever have. (Example: Burple; don't worry, that password is a couple
of years old and isn't in use anywhere.).
Perhaps it's not just pronouncability that people want. At least
for me, most of my passwords are sniglet type things, that is there
usually is something which might mean something. After all, pronouncability
isn't all there is to something being rememberable.
Now, why is this discussion occuring in comp.protocols.tcp-ip/info-tcp-ip?
And the similar discussions going on in other groups. We *need*
to have comp.security, and gateway it into a mailing list for those
who cannot receive news.
