Hello!

Is there a way to use goodpw, but allow users to change just a single character instead of at least three, when entering a new password.
I have modified the /usr/lib/goodpw/match the way I need the settings to be. Everything works fine, but the users are always asked to change at least three characters.
I have tried pretty much every combination in /etc/default/goodpw and /etc/auth/system/default, but nothing seems to work. I also tried different security levels, no changes either.
The box runs sco openserver 5.0.6 with all the available patches and updates.
Every hint is very welcome!
Thanks in advance
Dudeck
