You can write a stand-alone program that displays and enforces customized password strength rules in ID-Synch.
These programs are written as stand-alone Win32 console executable programs. They must accept input on stdin and print their results to stdout.
ID-Synch calls a password policy program first to display its policy. ID-Synch then ``types'' a single line into the program's input: SHOW_RULES. The program must respond by displaying a one-line policy statement (the text that follows your password must or your password should on the screen.
After a user selects a new password, ID-Synch calls the program
again. ID-Synch ``types'' three lines into the program's input:
VALIDATE
the user's login ID
the user's password choice
The program must respond with a single line. It must either say ok, or give an error message to display on the user's screen.
For more general information about writing plug-in programs, see the full manual shipped with the ID-Synch software.
