When creating a new user and assigning a password the validation control incorrectly reports "Password must contain 6 characters" if it is under 8. Either the validation control needs to be changed to allow 6 character passwords, or the validation response needs to be changed to "Password must contain 8 characters" as it will not allow new passwords less than 8 characters.

Since the number of characters can be changed (BVAdmin > Options > Users), the validator should probably be updated by Page.Load or Page.Init.

I might also suggest small text appear above the password section that defines how many characters are needed so new users aren't guessing. This should make it into the SP1 release, JMHO :)

BTW,
There used to be a validator that the password is alpha-numeric only. I'm not sure if it still exists in the SP (I removed it from my site).
Can you guys please remove that?
I know lots of users that use generated password with combinations of letters+digits and special characters.

Thanks,
Corneliu.

Validator was in there properly, it was checking MinimumLength - 1 for some reason. We also added text so that the user knows how long the password needs to be.
