You can do this by these 5 steps:
+1. enter the system command, as "root", pwunconv
+2. enter the system command, as "root", grpunconv
+3. Set the following to be the /etc/pam.d/login file on your system
+#%PAM-1.0
+auth required /lib/security/pam_securetty.so
+auth required /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so shadow nullok
+auth required /lib/security/pam_nologin.so
+account required /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so
+password required /lib/security/pam_cracklib.so
+password required /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so nullok use_authtok
+session required /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so
+session optional /lib/security/pam_console.so
+4. Set the following to be the /etc/pam.d/passwd file on your system
+#%PAM-1.0
+auth required /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so shadow nullok
+account required /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so
+password required /lib/security/pam_cracklib.so retry=3
+password required /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so use_authtok nullok
+5. Set/reset passwords. As "root" use 'passwd', and 'passwd www'
+to change the important passwords. This creates crypt-processible
+passwords in /etc/passwd.
