ABSTRACT:
A mechanism is described for determining whether a password may be used in a system that determines access privileges based on passwords. A computer system, such as a database system, receives user supplied routines that are each associated with a group of users. A proposed password (e.g. string) is received that is associated with a particular user that belongs to particular group. The user supplied routine associated with the group is used to determine whether the proposed password may be used as a password.
