Password Construction

by eric_v . Updated 24 years, 11 months ago

My understanding is the passwords in WinNT came be up to 14 characters. That are visible, and in theory up to 32 characters. With that said, can a password include mathematical computations? For instance, ADV:128:11! The last two characters is a math computation for factoring. In which the answer is 8 digits long. Also, while the system is verifying the password would the processor automatically process the factor to get the answer, which is the rest of the password?
