/*	A good password:
	1)	should contain at least six characters (man passwd);
	2)	empty passwords are not permitted;
	3)	should contain a mix of four different types of characters
		upper case letters,
		lower case letters,
		numbers,
		special characters such as !@#$%^&*,;".
	This password types should not  be permitted:
	a)	pure numbers: birthdates, social security number, license plate, phone numbers;
	b)	words and all letters only passwords (uppercase, lowercase or mixed)
		as palindromes, consecutive or repetitive letters
		or adjacent letters on your keyboard;
	c)	username, real name, company name or (e-mail?) address
		in any form (as-is, reversed, capitalized, doubled, etc.).
		(we can check only against username, gecos and hostname)
	d)	common and obvious letter-number replacements
		(e.g. replace the letter O with number 0)
		such as "M1cr0$0ft" or "P@ssw0rd" (CAVEAT: we cannot check for them
		without the use of a dictionary).

	For each missing type of characters an increase of password length is
	requested.

	If user is root we warn only.

	CAVEAT: some older versions of crypt() truncates passwords to 8 chars,
	so that aaaaaaaa1Q$ is equal to aaaaaaaa making it possible to fool
	some of our checks. We don't test for this special case as newer versions
	of crypt do not truncate passwords.
