exclude user from password policy?

[Anne]

Sorry, I should have been more clear.

Basically I created a PAM policy to disable accounts after 5 unsuccessful
logon attempts. Unfortunately, this included the ROOT account, which is
causing major headaches. 

Just wondered if I could exclude the ROOT account in this PAM policy from
inheriting this disable policy?

Thanks

Errrrr....what?
What do you mean with your password policies? You mean that sort of things
like password expiration, password minimum lenght and all that stuff?
