But then I have to figure out a password that is accepted
by the new very strict rules!<br>

<div>Yes this is a bug being discussed on the main devel and
anaconda lists. Try Fedora_Project123! the set it to
whatever you want afterwords. If that doesn't work use </div>

You got that right!<br>
<br>
Yes, I have read up on this on the main devel list and put one
comment in on it.<br>
<br>
Look up Rich Smith's cryptosmith.org on password sanity.<br>
<br>
Let's say the english dictionary has 5x10^5 words. A string of 6
words would take a 5x10^30 rainbow table to look up. Yet such a
password gets flagged as weak. Perhaps there are some shortcuts
that make the space smaller, but I can't see it being so much
smaller.<br>
<br>
Hopefully this will be resolved sooner rather than later.<br>

If you skip the initial-setup password and do it with
passwd, you can 'get by' with the old rules.<br>
<br>
I actually think there is an error in the password
strenght logic. I suspect it is looking at the text and
saying, boy there are words there so it is crackable.
Even if there are 6 words, each of different length. I
know this as the 6 word one I tried got flagged as weak.
