    Hi,

    Slightly odd request, but I am trying to locate the equivalent of the 'words' file found in Solaris and linux that contains ..well words, or at least words that you would find in a dictionary, one word per line. I believe the file is used as a reference for spell checking and to assess password suitability.

    On redhat the file is found in the package 'words'. I have not found an equivalent package for aix unless anyone knows differently?

    Thanks

    If that's not it there are other files in /usr/lib/spell that might be what you are looking for.
