Question

Do user passwords in FogBugz need to meet any requirements (length, special characters, etc)?

Answer 1

FogBugz requires passwords to be at least 6 characters long. Passwords cannot begin or end with whitespace.

In FogBugz 7.1, you can optionally turn on the Strict Password Policy under Admin -> Site Configuration > Authentication tab (it is turned off by default). When the policy is enabled, the following requirements must be met whenever setting a user's password:

• Passwords must be at least 8 characters long
• Passwords must contain:
  • At least 1 uppercase letter
  • At least 1 lowercase letter
  • At least 1 number
  • At least 1 special character (@,#,$,etc.)

The Strict Password Policy does not apply to community users
