xscreensaver password



    Hey people. I just noticed that even though I screwed up the tail end of
my xscreensaver password, that it worked anyway. So, does that mean that only
the first N characters are significant? What's N? 
    This to me is not a good thing. What's the max length on a Unix password,
16? 128? 256?

    Mike
