Hi Team,
I am looking for a special use case for vault userpass authentication backend which allows the user to only have the strong password based on the defined policy.
Is this possible with userpass backend?
Thanks & Regards,
Saurav Kumar Singh

Hi Saurav,
The userpass backend is pretty "dumb" -- it's designed for the
passwords to be set by an administrator (who can use various utilities
that exist for generating strong passwords, or random bytes) or from
an outside data source. There isn't currently a way to do this.
