I don't know.  I downloaded it today, but there's no --version option, plus the --help also doesn't reveal the version and the log output doesn't indicate it either.

Description

How can I disable the check for passwords being "too easy?" We need to set up users with simple passwords in a small office where users are extremely frustrated with having complex passwords that they just print out on lists and leave on their desks -- they're angry because it's gotten ridiculous, and I don't blame them.

The users understand that high quality passwords are needed for external web sites, but internally they abhor having to "jump through hoops" just to access an internal system because the hassle wastes their time since complex passwords aren't easy to type in, and having printed lists lying around just defeats the whole point of using high quality passwords.

The interface with this project is fantastic, but this hassle with passwords being rejected is kind of a show-stopper for people.

Thanks.

What did you expect to happen?

Passwords to be accepted.

What actually happened?

Error: Password too easy.

Reproduction Steps

Attempt to create a new user with a password that's not short, yet is easy for users to remember and to type.
