2.3.1.131. passwordMinCategories (Password Syntax)
This sets the minimum number of character categories that are represented in the password. The
categories are lower, upper, digit, special, and 8-bit. For example, if the value of this attribute were
set to 2, and the user tried to change the password to aaaaa, the server would reject the password
because it contains only lower case characters, and therefore contains characters from only one
category. A password of aAaAaA would pass because it contains characters from two categories,
uppercase and lowercase. The default is 3, which means that if password syntax checking is enabled,
valid passwords have to have three categories of characters.
